Les Zaz Blancs 2023 La Croix Gratiot

Les Zazous Blanc 2023

南仏の複雑さを、二つの品種で束ねる。

ピクプールとルーサンヌのブレンドで、南仏の複雑な味わいを描いた白ワインです。豊かで力強いアロマには、ヘーゼルナッツパウダーや柑橘の皮、スパイスカレーを思わせる香りが重なります。花のような香り立ちと肉厚な果実味、繊細なオークの風味が溶け合い、口中には甘やかなスパイスが感じられ、見事なバランスを示します。ホタテの串焼きやオマール海老とモリーユ茸を添えた鶏料理とともに。

Winemaking & technical data

Producer's comments
After releasing the red wine "Zazu," we now try our hand at white wine. Unlike the red wine, this white wine focuses on blending.
Picpoul Blanc lightly enhances the charm of the Roussanne.
The name "Zazu" has several origins: the unconventional jazz enthusiasts of the late 1930s, the music of Brigitte Fontaine,
It also draws inspiration from Anaïs' nickname.
Certification: AB, Euroleaf

brewing
The varieties are blended together at the time of harvest.
After fermentation in stainless steel tanks, the wine is transferred to barrels at a specific gravity of 1.030 and aged for six months.
It is then aged for a further 6 months in concrete tanks.
