Château Fontvert White 2010
 
Wine made from grapes in conversion to organic farming
 
Winemaking
The 2010 Château Fontvert White comes from a selection of Grenache Blanc (75%) and Vermentino (25%). Following a meticulous hand picking, a 24 hour skin maceration allows the extraction of essential aromatic precursors from the skin of the berries. Then wine is fermented in French oak barrels at controlled temperature of 16°C. 8 months of ageing in barrels, on the lees with regular stirring, brings a balance and a roundness to silky and essential aromas.
 
Tasting notes
A very flowery nose, both peachy and exotic, is characteristic of this vintage. These aromatic notes linger in the mouth with a perfect balance between roundness and acidity.
 
Food pairings
This wine stands up perfectly with grilled fish, lobster, white meat with a light sauce, special cheeses (like fresh goat cheese) or even with foie gras. We recommend tasting between 8 and 10° C.
