PISSOTTE BLANC AOP BIO LA PETITE GROIE DOMAINE COIRIER

Description

This is the name of the house on the estate and the limestone from which it is made. A blend of 90% Chenin and 10% Chardonnay, macerated overnight for richness and body, long fermentation and matured for 12 months in 400-litre barrels from the Mervent-Vouvant forest. Quince paste on the nose, rich and full on the palate with notes of acacia honey. Note that the millesime 2021 has only been pre-filtered, so it may show a slight haze which in no way hinders tasting, but shows all the intrinsic richness of this wine.
A plot-selected white wine made from a Fiefs Vendéens-style blend of 90% Chenin and 10% Chardonnay. This cuvée, with its long maceration and fermentation, is finalized to give it its full character by maturing in 400-liter barrels for a year. As you can see, the wine is powerful, full-bodied and long on the palate, with a quince paste nose and a finish of acacia honey.
