Domaine Bornard, Ivresse De Noe, 2018

Price

£55.00

The fascinating L’Ivresse de Noe (named after the biblical story of the drunkeness of Noah) is a November harvest Savagnin. Because Savagnin has a hard skin the grapes can withstand the drying process as they wither on the vine and concentrate the flavour inside the grape.The bunches are then hand-picked and pressed then moved to 400 litre tonneau to mature for two years. The barrels are kept topped up during that time. A little residual sugar linked to high acidity gives this non-oxidative Savagnin an unusual flavour and texture but WOW!
