Presentation
This Luberon white draws its sparkling energy and seductive freshness from the Marrenon vineyard, nestled in the heart of a splendid Regional Natural Park, on the slopes of the Luberon Massif, located in the south of France. The unique liveliness of this wine finds its inspiration in the exceptional terroir of this preserved region, where the vineyard benefits from an exceptional natural environment.
Terroir
These plots located on limestone marl soils impart a unique identity to the grapes that grow there. The combination of marly soil and limestone richness creates a unique terroir, bringing depth of character and distinct nuances to the vines. These specific climatic conditions contribute to shaping grapes of exceptional quality, thus capturing the authentic essence of the terroir in each cluster.
Harvest
The harvest, carried out during the first half of September, takes place at night to preserve the aromatic freshness of the grapes. This nocturnal harvest highlights the commitment to capturing delicate aromas and optimal fruit quality, adding a meticulous dimension to the winemaking process.
Winemaking
Preceding the pressing, a short skin maceration is carried out, followed by fermentation at low temperatures, ranging between 14 and 16°C. These meticulous steps in the winemaking process contribute to extracting the subtle characteristics of the grape, thus preserving the freshness and aromatic complexity in every sip of the resulting wine.
Ageing
The wine undergoes exclusive aging in tanks, a meticulous care that continues until bottling, thus preserving the purity and authentic expression of the grape's characteristics.
