Marrenon Doria Luberon White Southern Rhone Blend

Soil and grapes clayey and chalky soils. Small plots selected among our best terroirs situated on luberon slopes. These terroirs give naturally small yield (30hl / ha). Harvest and vinification : all these grapes are night-harvested in early october. Short skin maceration and pneumatic pressing. Alcoholic fermentation for 20% in oak barrel (which 30% are new barrels). 6-month maturing. Alcoholic fermentation for the rest in tank at 12°c-14°c. Therefore juices are fermenting with all assembled grapes. Tasting notes : the colour is straw-yellow with silver reflects. The nose is intense and complex. It reveals yellow-flesh fruits and a milky wood aroma milky caramel. Some spice and infusion aromas shape this aromatic complexity. In mouth the attack lies on sweetness with lot of roundness and smoothness. It develops honey lemon and roasted nuts flavours. The mouth reveals a good volume and roundness marked by acidity that gives length and persistence to this wine. Sommelie
