Viré-Clessé Bio Virolis Domaine de la Verpaille
Description
White
Mineral and citrus
Climate located on hillsides where our old Chardonnay vines grow in shallow limestone rock to express all the finesse and complexity of this terroir. The vinification in demi-muid (600L) contributes to the complexity and structure of this wine. The choice of the demi-muid was guided by the search for a greater aromatic neutrality of the oak in order to take advantage only of the micro-oxygenation brought by the porosity of the wood. We focused on oaks from the Vosges for more finesse.
