Saint-Sylvestre Blanc 2020 Saint-Sylvestre

Saint Sylvestre Blanc

高地の三品種が重ねる、豊かなコク。

ラングドックの高地で育まれたぶどうを、土壌や樹ごとに丁寧に手入れして仕込んだ白です。ルーサンヌとマルサンヌ由来の熟した白桃やアプリコットに、ヴィオニエがもたらす白い花や杏の華やかな香りが重なります。ブルゴーニュ樽での熟成が豊かなコクと丸みを与え、ミネラルと程よい酸が全体を整えます。余韻にはナッツやバターを思わせる複雑さ。ブイヤベースやキノコのリゾットと。

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.

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.
