Vignes du Maynes 2022 Sainte Geneviève Cremant de Bourgogne Extra Brut

We're delighted to have the wonderful Vignes du Maynes Cremant de Bourgogne "Sainte Geneviève" back in the store, this time the second disgorgement! Made from 30 to 70 year-old vines of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Gamay (with 1% Muscat) grown on clay/limestone soils in and around Cruzille (Muscat from Alsace), certified organic of course. Guyot Poussard simple pruning with arc training, harvested by hand, direct pressing, traditional method - first fermentation and ageing in steel tanks, second fermentation in bottle, 9 months of ageing on slats, 12.5% alcohol. The wine shows lovely aromas of white peach and red fruits, spiced pear and honey. The palate is creamy and full, with pear, a hint of red currant and berry fruits, honey, stone and brown spice with fabulous length. This is unique and really lovely - it will be great fun to share this rare wine with friends and family as a special aperitif or creative food pairing.
