Saint Sylvestre Blanc (Magnum) 2018 Saint-Sylvestre

Saint Sylvestre Blanc

繊細さと力強さが、ひとつの白に。

ラングドックの高地で育まれたブドウから、土壌や樹ごとの手入れを重ねて生まれる白ワインの2018年マグナム。ルーサンヌとマルサンヌの熟した白桃やアプリコットに、ヴィオニエの白い花と杏が華やかに重なります。口に含むと豊かなコクと丸みが広がり、ミネラルと程よい酸がバランスを整えます。余韻にはナッツとバターの複雑さ。ブイヤベースやキノコのリゾットと合わせて。

Tasting note

The fruitiness of ripe white peach and apricot from Roussanne and Marsanne is layered with the gorgeous aroma of white flowers and apricot from Viognier. When you put it in your mouth, a rich, rounded flavor spreads, balanced by minerals and just the right amount of acidity. The aftertaste is complex, reminiscent of nuts and butter, giving the impression of elegance typical of a white wine that combines delicacy and power.

Food pairing

Bouillabaisse, roast chicken with cream sauce, mushroom risotto

Winemaking & technical data

The grapes are hand-picked by variety and plot, then destemmed and crushed by variety and plot.

The grapes are then pressed directly, but kept separate by plot, and then mixed before fermentation.

Fermentation and ageing take place in old Burgundy barrels, in which prestigious wines have been aged, for 12 months.
