Owning & Enjoying

Tasting notes
Beautiful golden color with hints of candied white fruit, apricot and quince.
As for the serving temperature, following the example of Château d'Yquem up until the 1980s, it is best to serve it at a temperature just before freezing (around 0°C), if possible. After refrigeration, place it in the freezer for 15 to 20 minutes, then serve it in small amounts, topping it off as needed.

Pairing
Foie gras terrine and brioche with walnuts, roasted chicken breast stuffed with apricot and ricotta farce, blue cheese and nut platter

Winemaking

By combining purely physical techniques such as harvesting the grapes at the correct level of ripeness, gentle pressing, controlled fermentation, long-term stabilization, and maceration, Clos des Fées has established an original method for producing stable, elegant, and easy-to-drink wines, but some technical details are kept secret to avoid easy imitation by others.
