Domaine de Lucey Roussette de Savoie Les Monettes, 2022, 750ml

Description

Biodynamic principles are a defining aspect of Domaine de Lucey. For winemaker Erwan, biodynamic farming is a means of conversing with his vines, caring for and nurturing their growth, empathizing and exchanging with them, and adapting to changes in weather and climate. Erwan adopted biodynamic principles immediately upon arrival, abandoning conventional treatments in favor of infusions and fermented extracts of nettle, willow, chamomile, propolis, valerian, and more. Vinification still takes place in the ancient fortress without any additives. The goal is to produce longer-aging wines that can reveal their full potential over several years.

This wine hails from single parcel (Les Monettes) rooted in deep and moderately stony limestone soils planted at 400m altitude. Bottled with <38mg/L of sulfur. It's a vivacious wine with notes of grapefruit, minerality and just a little salt. Pair it with richer fish dishes or oysters.
