Saint-Amour 2022 6x75cl

Indulgent nose with Gariguette strawberry, cherry and blueberry suffused with fragrances of violet, liquorice and white pepper. Full-bodied and juicy in the mouth.

Vineyards

The vines are grouped around the property facing due south and south-east. They enjoy a wide diversity of terroirs, mainly with stony soil composed of sandstone, blue stone, clay and granite.

Vintage

To summarise, we have experienced increased sunshine levels (50%), a healthy fruit set (7-10 clusters per vine), and excellent sanitary conditions.

Winemaking

The grapes are vinified in whole clusters or destemmed in cement vats. The ancestral 'chapeau grillé' technique used requires a special wooden grill to keep the 'hat' submerged. This gentle extraction helps provide structure whilst retaining the elegance of the terroir.

Enjoy with:

White meat, particularly bresse chicken
