2020 Château Planères Muscat de Rivesaltes - Cuvée Excellence Muscat d'Alexandrie / Muscat à Petits grains 0.75 Ltr. Blanc
picture of

Crystal clear and brilliant color. Lovely fresh aromas of grapefruit, citrus and pineapple typical of Malvoisie. In the mouth it is nicely round and supple without losing elegance. Fresh and dry agrum fruit is nicely balanced with more exotic fruits. Long, exciting and refined finish.

Surprising combination with pasta and bread but also with dishes with mushrooms, salads with herbs and different cheeses.

climate

Mediterranean climate with long hot summers and mild winters, due to the dry winds of the "PYRENE"

soil

Very rocky clay-limestone slopes, facing South-East

vinification

This late-blooming grape is picked in the cool of the night to avoid as much oxidation as possible and preserve its fresh character. Cold maceration, débourbage and fermentation at low temperatures in inox cuves. Since 1980, this almost forgotten grape variety has been on the rise again. It gives the white wines strength and structure and ensures more storage capacity.
