Domaine Lupin, "Frangy" Roussette de Savoie 2020, 750 mL

2020, 750 ml In the winery, Bruno is hands-off with minimal intervention. After a manual harvest, native yeasts start the fermentation in stainless steel, and sulfur levels are kept to a minimum. Malolactic fermentation is partial, around 20%, as he looks for the right balance of body and freshness. The acidities are never corrected (a common practice in the region), and the wines ferment to dryness (less than 4g/liter). The latter point is important, as Altesse has very high acidity, and most producers leave a certain amount of residual sugar to cover that up, to the detriment of the wine’s structure and ability to age. 100% Roussette , Savoie, France
