The wine is vinified by means of carbonic maceration and with indigenous yeasts, without the addition of sulphites during vinification and maturation of the wine. A small percentage of sulphites is added only before the wine is bottled. The philosophy of winemaking with minimal intervention, just as it does with its fantastic cru, is followed in Wild...
In the cru of Regnie are most of Julien Sunier's own vineyards in great "Lieux dits" such as En Oeillat. Here the vines are old, with an average age of 60 years, and are located at an altitude of between 280-400 meters on pink granitic sand with clay in the subsoil. Vinification is in an anaerobic environment (maceration carbonic) for about 10-20 days and...
Classical carbonic and semi-carbonic maceration with whole bunches for 10 to 20 days, followed by pressing in an old vertical press and maturation of the wine for 8-11 months in 10-year-old barrels in contact with the lees. This is a wine with the "upbringing" of a great Burgundy, elegant, light and ethereal, with lovely, clean fruit and a "tight"...
To the east of the famous D974, the vineyard is located on sandy soils with several stones and the old vines have extremely complex genetic material from mass selection which seems to be able to produce fruit with intense aromas. The tannins have excellent structure, as fine as cigarette paper, but "layered" on multiple levels that make it seem more...
A different approach on the Moschofilero of Mantineia with the base wine being aged in French oak barrels before starting the second fermentation process in the bottle and the total stay of the wine for 19 months in contact with the lees. Generously expressive and spicy, with acidity balanced by the few residual sugars, this is a sparkling wine that is an...
