BAUHINIA WHITE

AOP Clairette de Bellegarde

100% Clairette blanche
Tasting:

Topaz-yellow transparency with silvery reflections.
Mineral first nose, on flint and chalk, then opening to notes of white flowers (acacia, almond blossom) and citrus (kumquat, lemon peel), finishing with a touch of fresh almond and star anise.
Dense and long palate. The attack is ample and full, then evolves toward surprising salinity on the finish.

Terroir: Soils of sandstone with rolled pebbles.
Winemaking:

Harvested at two maturity stages: an early harvest for freshness, with several days of cold stabilization to increase aromatic potential; a second harvest at higher maturity for density. Classic vinification at controlled temperature.
Aged in amphora to preserve fruit and optimize the grape’s minerality.

Alcohol: 13.5%
Serving temperature: 10–12°C
