Detailed information
Vintage
After a warm and hot summer, some rainy periods enabled the grapes to achieve the ideal maturity. During the harvest (which was early), the wind regulated the excessive temperatures, preserving the aromas of the grapes. This ideal weather and healthy conditions make the 2015 vintage one of the most qualitative in recent years.
Grape varieties
Terroir
The «Muscat à petits grains» grapes are selected on the sunniest hillsides in the South of the appellation with a southern exposure and approximately at 120m of altitude, guarantee of freshness.
Winemaking
Fully manual picking in cases at optimum ripeness and manual sorting. Destemming of the entire harvest. Cold maceration (3°C for about 5 hours) for a part of the cuvée. Pressing, cold settling and fermentation under strict temperature control (14°C). At 110g per liter of residual sugar, the fermentation is stopped by rapid cooling of the tank to O°C and alcohol mutage. 3% of the wine is aged 5 months in oak barrels.
Service
Enjoy it cool between 10°C to 12°C, now or cellar for up to 5 years.
Gabriel Meffre
Delicious and savoury from day one: this is the commitment of our Gabriel Meffre "signature" wines. For each appellation, and in keeping with the characteristics of the vintage, our know-how is recognisable through our experienced blending of "terroirs" and grape varieties and through our careful maturing, favouring purity of fruit and silkyness of texture. Already enjoyable in their first year after bottling, the Crus also have good aging potential.
