La Grange Tiphaine Blanc "Clef de Sol"

Clef de Sol is Damien and Coralie's first dry wine to be bottled from the Montlouis sur Loire appellation of origin. The second (Les Epineys) always comes to market after an additional year, having been further matured in a number of different containers. Clef de Sol is bottled immediately after the end of spontaneous alcoholic fermentation, a slow fermentation that starts in autumn, slows down in winter and continues in spring until it is complete. The wine thus remains for about 9 months in contact with 225 and 400 litre barrels in which it ferments and at the end of the fermentation process it is bottled fresh without further ageing. Beautiful, expressive with notes of fresh fruit and white flowers and that "line" of minerality that runs through the wine from start to finish and gives it fantastic energy and vitality.
