Fermentation is done
in thermo-regulated tanks. No malolactic fermentation is done to preserve the brightness of fruit.
Les Murets Blanc vines are grown primarily on Silex soils but the influences of the Kimmeridgian marl and Oxfordian limestone on the vines and their grapes contribute to the wine’s complexity. Its flavor profile has the classic minerality which can be found in the aromatics and down the middle of the palate through its long finish.
