Soirée à l'Opéra 2021

€22,80

At times acting as artist and other times as a muse, this Soirée à l’Opéra is an ode to inspiration. A timeless work of art that gives your imagination free rein, an elegant and eclectic experience… and a true revelation.

The discovery of our Soirée à l'Opéra is a delightful spectacle where each instrument finds its place. In full performance, Petit Manseng, Riesling and Gewurztraminer reveal all their assets to entertain you through a complex vintage rich in freshness and exotic fruits.

   Organic wine certified by BE-BIO-01 

Blend and vinification

  • Petit Manseng - France, Southwest, Jurançon (Lucq de Béarn)
  • Riesling - France, Alsace (Riquewihr)
  • Gewürztraminer - France, Alsace (Riquewihr)

We drew our inspiration from the Pyrenees to Alsace to write a score full of accuracy. Exotic notes emerge from the Petit Manseng, also famous for its natural acidity and fatness. The Riesling offers a superb interpretation between vivacity, power and persistence. Finally, the Gewurztraminer closes this recital with softness thanks to its density and its unctuousness. 

From the vine to the glass, the making of a wine is worthy of the greatest works of art. The grapes are harvested by hand before arriving in our cellars. With the same precision as a master conductor, we adapt to our grape varieties. The Petit Manseng is de-stemmed and benefits from a 24-hour skin maceration before pressing, while the Riesling and Gewurztraminer are directly pressed in whole bunches. The same goes for the maturation. For the first, a third of the volume remains 6 months in demi-muids. The rest is aged in stainless steel, as for the other two varieties. We do not use fining but a light filtration before bottling for the 3,900 bottles and 100 magnums.

Taste

Its pale, clear and limpid color awakens the senses before giving you a wonderful experience. From the very first fragrance, the nose seduces with its freshness. It oscillates between white flowers and exotic fruits, especially pineapple and lychee. Its pretty matter in mouth is matched only by its acidic frame which gives terribly desire to return to it. 

Let it air out before serving so that it can open up and deliver its full range of aromas. Drink it within five years with fresh or aged goat cheese, or, for explorers who like to take their taste buds on the road, a ceviche with exotic notes like those of the wine.
