ALPHA DOMUS CUMULUS METHODE TRADITIONELLE NV

The grapes were hand harvested and whole bunch pressed from our Clone 6 Chardonnay block planted in 1991. Cropping levels were kept to a maximum of 10 tonnes/ha through controlled pruning in winter and canopy management through the growing season. Harvested early with optimum sugar ripeness and flavour for Méthode Traditionelle, this Chardonnay clone has been specifically selected for its bright citrus freshness, and light elegant structure on the palate.The perfect aperitif and a great accompaniment through all courses.

Lively and bright on the nose with aromas of lemon zest, sweet citrus blossom with hints of biscuit and brioche from time on yeast lees in bottle. Full malolactic fermentation has softened the palate and added a creamy element that complements the citrus and stone fruit flavours. The wine has a long flavoursome finish with a vibrant acidity.
