Chenin Orange 2021 Le Rocher des Violettes

Chenin Orange

四週間の醸しが引き出す、シュナンの輪郭。

ル・グラン・ポワリエ区画、樹齢70年を超えるシュナン・ブランから。粘土とシレックス石が混じる石灰岩土壌に育った果実を4週間果皮浸漬し、土着酵母を用いてステンレスタンクで発酵・熟成させています。洋梨や柑橘類、赤い果実の香ばしいアロマ。円やかな口当たりに、苦みと引き締まったタンニンがアクセントとなります。空気に触れると複雑味が増し、新しい革や黒鉛のニュアンスも。上品でバランスのよい仕上がりです。

Tasting note

A rich taste. The aroma of pear, citrus and red fruits is fragrant. It is smooth and accented with bitterness and firm tannins. The complex flavor increases when exposed to air, and you can also feel subtle nuances of new leather and graphite. It is elegant, well-balanced and has a beautiful finish.
