Vinification
Classic settling to keep and reveal the terroir. We produce a part of this cuvee with 12 hours skin maceration and another part from directly pressed grapes. Low temperature wine making (15-16°) for part of the cuvee and under wood in a fresh cellar to emphasize the aromas. Kept in vats on fine lees to develop the aromas through micro-oxygenation.
Production
500 (9-liter cases)
Pairings

Les Folies Vouvray goes well with Asian food, fishes, charcuteries, BBQ pork spareribs or simply as an aperitif.
