Clairette De Die Tradition - Domaine Achard-Vincent

The light-footed Clairette De Die Tradition from Domaine Achard-Vincent glides into the glass with a brilliant golden yellow. The perlage of this sparkling wine presents itself in the glass wonderfully persistent and fine. If you give it some air by swirling it in the wine glass, this sparkling wine is characterized by a marvelous brilliance that lets it dance dynamically in the glass. Poured into a sparkling wine glass, this Old World sparkling wine displays delightfully distinguished and complex aromas of lemon, brioche, peach and green apple, rounded off by broom.

On the palate, this light-footed sparkling wine is marked by an exceedingly creamy and dense texture. The finish of this sparkling wine from the wine-growing region of the Rhône Valley, more precisely from Cairanne, ultimately convinces with a lovely aftertaste. The finish is also accompanied by mineral facets from the clay- and limestone-dominated soils.

Vinification of Domaine Achard-Vincent Clairette De Die Tradition

The elegant Clairette De Die Tradition from France is a cuvée, organically produced from the grape varieties Clairette and Yellow Muscat. In the Rhône Valley, the vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow on clay and limestone soils. It is obvious that Clairette De Die Tradition is also shaped by the climatic and stylistic factors of Cairanne. This French wine can literally be described as an Old World wine, presenting itself as exceptionally distinguished and complex. The development of the grapes for this wine from Clairette and Yellow Muscat is influenced to a not inconsiderable extent by the climate of the growing region. In the Rhône Valley, the grapes thrive in a rather cool climate, which is reflected, among other things, in particularly long and evenly ripening grapes and a rather moderate must weight. After the grape harvest, the grapes are quickly brought to the press house. There they are selected and gently crushed. This is followed by the fermentation of the base wines.
