Inspire Destitage

The white blend of Viognier, Sauvignon Blanc and French Colombard, combines rich fruit flavors and elegant finesse. This charming wine is sharp and fresh, filled with lemon and apple aromas. It has a captivating acidity and a delicate finish.

After the overnight harvest, the Viognier grapes arrive at the vineyard in the early morning. They are immediately and gently squeezed to preserve the high quality of the fruit and prevent oxidation.

After pressing, the must is transferred to cooled tanks. After the must has decanted, the yeast is added and fermentation begins, which takes two to three weeks at a low temperature to preserve the wine's aroma. In order to develop the aromatic profile and widen the wine palate, 30% of the wine was aged in French oak barrels for four months. The rest of the wine was left in the stainless steel tanks.

The Sauvignon Blanc and the French Colombard grapes are harvested at a later date and then subjected to a similar process. Finally, a few tasters at the winery tasting decide on the final wine blend - 60% Viognier, 25% Sauvignon Blanc, 15% French Colombard. The wine is not malolactic fermentation to keep its fresh properties.
