in the vineyard : Our two most aromatic varietals on the farm compose this wine. These cultivars have beautiful fruit and spicey floral aromas. The vineyards are situated on South-West facing slopes with a North-South row direction for optimal sun exposure and flavour development.

about the harvest: We hand picked both the Viognier and Muscat de Frontignon at 22° - 23° Balling.

in the cellar : Both the varieties were tank fermented at 12° - 14° C to retain fresh fruit and floral aromas. They were blended shortly after fermentation and bottled early to retain freshness and vitality. We stopped the fermentation by cooling the wine down to -4° C. This resulted in an off-dry wine, with a lower alcohol and beautiful natural residual sugar.
