Grapes: Savagnin
Region: Jura, France
Viticulture: Organic
Soils: Grey Marl Clay

Vinification: The grapes were harvested by hand, direct pressed and then underwent natural fermentation in stainless steel tanks.

Fining or Filtering: None
Notes from the Importer: This is Catherine's opulent and powerful Savagnin made in the non-oxidative style from grapes grown in the highly regarded Sous Roche vineyard near Pupillin. Burgundy-esque with pastry, hazelnut and exotic spices featuring on the nose and palate with a core of apple and citrus fruit creating a long and precise finish.
