French White Wine "Page Blanche"

"Page Blanche" is a french white wine certified organic. It was bottled in 2024 by Sophie Guiraudon.

Tasting Notes: 

This is an atypical Grenache, characterized on the palate by the smoothness of Grenache and the fresh, vibrant character of a harvest at controlled ripeness. Floral notes, slightly fruity, with aromas of pear and peach, are enhanced by a touch of fennel.

Terroir and grape varieties:

This wine comes from a 60-year-old Grenache vineyard, planted with two types of Grenache: 80% Blanc and 20% Gris. 

Vineyard work: 

The grapes were harvested by hand at a very moderate ripeness. 

Winemaking:

Winemaking is multifaceted and varied: some grapes are made using the saignée method, some by direct pressing, and some after a 12-hour pre-fermentation maceration. Temperature control is minimal. Malolactic fermentation is completed to produce a more stable wine with very low sulfites. 

Aging:

The wine has aged in clay eggs.
