VDF "Marius et Simone" (Orange) 2022

Golden in the glass with notes of almond and hazlenut, zesty citrus and a mineral finish!

Frédéric Giachino has been producing wine in his domain for more than 20 years, utilising organic techniques for half of that time. Located in the Chartreuse Hills, the vines of Giachino grow along the limestone slopes of Mount Granier. The climate can be unforgiving, and the landscape offers only limited space for viticulture. However, ancient glaciers managed to create large valleys with rocky outcrops as they retreated. So, against the odds, the land is actually perfect for growing vines. The Marius et Simone cuvée is a tribute to their maternal grandparents. Marius was himself a winemaker, and it was he who planted the first vines on the estate.

Vinification: Grapes are harvested by hand and undergo a 48 hour pre-ferment and 20 day maceration in contact with the skins. The wine is matured in barrel with it`s lees for 10months before bottling with gravitry. 

Match it with: Aromatic chicken dishes.
