Viognier 2023 Domaine Vincent et Alexandre Cluzel

Viognier 2023

白桃とアプリコット、しなやかなヴィオニエ。

石灰質と砂質が混ざる豊かな土壌のヴィオニエを丁寧に手摘みし、ステンレスタンクで低温発酵。美しい麦わら色に金色の輝きが差します。熟した白桃やアプリコットといった白い果実のアロマは、空気に触れるとドライフルーツやアーモンドのニュアンスへと表情を変えます。アタックはしなやかで、やわらかく広がる果実味をほのかなミネラルが引き締めます。ホタテのソテーや鶏のクリーム煮と。

Tasting note

A beautiful straw yellow colour with golden highlights, it has a very clear and brilliant appearance. It has a very expressive nose, with aromas of ripe white fruits such as white peach and apricot, which change to nuances of dried fruit and almond when exposed to air. When you put it in your mouth, it has a soft, expansive flavor with a supple attack. The flavors of ripe peach and apricot stand out, and a subtle minerality tightens the overall flavor.

Food pairing

Sautéed scallops, creamed chicken, white fish carpaccio

Winemaking & technical data

The vineyards of Bessey and Chavanay, located on the Verlieu plain.

brewing

All grapes are hand-picked and sorted directly in the vineyard.
After cold pressing and racking, the wine is fermented with wild yeasts at a low temperature of about 15°C.
Alcoholic fermentation and malolactic fermentation then take place in the barrel, and the wine is then aged in barrels for eight months without batonnage (stirring of the lees).
