2022 gave us a lot of pleasure as winegrowers. An early year, warm in summer, with sufficient and well-distributed rainfall, cool nights and sunny days in autumn. High physiological maturity, intense aromas, crisp acidity, balanced alcohol. Best conditions for long-lived wines with tension and nerve.
The Golden Muscat grapes were left on the vines until the end of September for perfect maturity. The berries were a golden yellow, the aroma highly intense. At 48 hl per hectare, the yield was low.

Grapes were de-stemmed and left to macerate in the press for twelve hours to enrich the juice with aroma substances and body leached from the skins. Fermentation took place in oak and stainless steel tanks, partially with yeasts naturally occurring in the vineyard. The young wine was subsequently matured on the fine lees for five months to enable the aromas and flavour to evolve

19,200 bottles were filled.

Residual sugar: 1.2 g/l

Intense golden yellow in colour, this seductive wine displays a ravishing floral perfume together with nutmeg, cedar, apricot and grapey fruit supported by a streak of racy, vibrant acidity.
Enjoy at optimum maturity from early summer in 2023 to the end of 2026.

Delicious as an aperitif it makes a wonderful partner to spicy Chinese and Thai foods or mature hard cheeses.
