CHÂTEAU ROMBEAU, AOP Muscat de Rivesaltes , 2017 , 50cl , 15,5%

Grape variety Muscat à petit grain 100% Soil characteristics The vineyard is located on the slopes in the upper reaches of the Agly valley. The plot planted with Muscat à Petit Grain is on south-facing slopes on an original soil made up of layer of limestone and clay with rounded pebbles. This dry soil, near to Rivesaltes is favorable for the culture of this sweet natural wine (VDN). Winemaking The grapes are picked and selected by hand, destemmed and crushed. The maceration takes three weeks with an addition of alcohol to favor the extraction of aromas and tannins. Ageing on the lees in stainless steel tanks. Tasting Notes Medium yellow color. Screaming aromatics! The wine has a full body, a lightly round texture, well-balanced residual sugar and perfect acidity. Underlying it all is a zesty vibrance that supports this wine very well. Medium in length with orange water, lilac candy and candied cantaloupe notes.
