Petite Arvine DOP - Les Cretes

Petite Arvine from Les Cretes is made solely from Petite Arvine. The grapes are grown on fragmented, high-density vineyards on sandy slopes, and the wine is fermented in stainless steel at 14°C for 12 days, then aged on the lees for about two months. It is bright straw yellow. The nose shows jasmine, peony, apple, passion fruit, plum and citrus. On the palate it is savoury and balanced, with mineral notes. A glass suits an aperitif, and it can also be served with marinated tuna carpaccio, pesto linguine, salt-baked sea bream or herb-crusted salmon trout.
