Tasting notes The Fleur de Savagnin has classic varietal aromas of pith and salty white fruits and apple with a note of something earthy or cheesy. On the palate, it is rich and strong but with great acidity and a salty twang reminiscent of Vin Jaune. Entirely hand harvested, the grapes are gently pressed with a pneumatic press for gentle extraction on whole clusters. The fermentation starts thanks to indigenous yeast at temperatures below 22°C.
