Description
This cuvée is made from a single plot of old Melon de Bourgogne or Melon Blanc vines. Its terroir is characterized by :
- – Its schist bedrock
- – Shallow, draining soil
- – A west-facing hillsideThese are all assets that will guarantee the Petit Panloup cuvée its finesse, its substance, its balance and its ageing potential.
The precisely controlled harvesting machine allows the ripe berries to be harvested in a short time. Direct
pressing, settling for 12 to 18 hours and filtering the lees make it possible to extract the substance of this wine and to refine it.
Alcoholic fermentation at 16-20 °C reveals the wine with its complexity of aromas from the grape berry which vary according to the vintage.
The ageing of one year on lees contributes to the development of its roundness and its ageing potential of at least 5 years. With age, it gains tertiary aromas that enrich its aromatic palette and reinforce its personality.
The quality of Cuvée Petit Panloup is recognized by connoisseurs of refined dry white wines.
Food pairing: This wine goes well with a wide variety of dishes, including seafood, especially shellfish. It is particularly well-suited to fish with beurre blanc sauce.
