Quantité

Golden and shiny robe, sustained. On the nose, aromas of peat, undergrowth and white pear are revealed. The mouth is buttery, balanced, we perceive notes of vanilla, white tobacco and white flowers. The tannins are melted, fat, round, in a beautiful structure.

Production method

Fermentation takes place in oak barrels, 30% of which are new. For the first three months, the cellar master stirs the wine in order to put the fine lees back into suspension and thus give it volume and fat. Full aging will last 12 months.

Reviews

"A convincing white, with fat (the fine lees have been resuspended during ageing) and a woody contribution which, far from overwhelming the wine as one might have feared, fits very well into the whole. , giving it a certain finesse and complexity. »
- Marc Chapleau - Cellar

“In the “rare wines” category, this cuvée named in honor of Gilles Vigneault is definitely worth the detour. Its blend of hybrid and noble vines (Chardonnay, Vidal and Seyval) proves to be most successful, rich and fruity at the same time. It tastes of Quebec and that's what I like! »
