Vinification Details

The grapes are harvested at night, when temperatures are at their lowest to preserve the original qualities of the grapes. At the winery they are transferred to the press in an inert gas atmosphere to begin extracting the juice. This is stabilized at 3°C for 7 days with gentle stirring in order to extract flavour and aromas from the fruit's pulp before fermentation. The wine is then racked at low temperatures and aged for 2 months on fine lees with occasional stirring to mellow the wine.

History

Founded in the Languedoc coastal city of Sète in 1920, for over a century Les Chais du Sud have been pioneers in exellence of the development of varietal wines from the region. This Sauvignon Blanc is no exception. Once the grapes reach optimum condition to give the best flavours & freshness, they are then harvested at night to maintain these qualities. This race to get grapes from vine to to winery lasts for 2 to 3 nights. The start of which is known as the "Grande Nuit"
