Terroir(s)

From varietal selection to vinification, we follow a very specific process for LOW NAT wines.

Soil selection : we have identified fertile, cool soils that enable high yields and abundant foliage. This naturally avoids a rapid sugar concentration during the grape development stage and preserves the flavor and intensity of the fruit. In addition, these well-draining and filtering soils mean that, in the event of rain, residual humidity is very low. This feature is of great interest in organic certification, as humidity favors the development of disease.

Vinification

In order to obtain a naturally low alcohol content of 9%, without any dealcoholization process, different steps are taken into account :

• Early harvest : The grapes are harvested earlier in the season, usually in the beginning of August. The sugar content is then lower, which yields a lower alcohol
  content in the wine.
• Unique vinification : an innovative technique is used in which malolactic fermentation is carried out on the juice. This allows us to work on the wine’s balance while guaranteeing its protection. Low-alcohol wines are more fragile and therefore require a high level of technical expertise.
• Yeast selection : the yeast chosen for alcoholic fermentation are highly specific and have a low yield in converting sugars into alcohol, meaning more sugar is consumed to produce one degree of alcohol.

This wine is a result of many years of research coupled with our technical expertise, resulting in a naturally low alcohol wine of the highest quality.

Tasting

An attractive pale yellow color, Low Nat Les Jamelles Sauvignon Blanc is highly aromatic, with an expression typical of its grape variety. The nose reveals fresh notes of cut grass, green apple, citrus and passion fruit. On the palate, this mineral expression is repeated, with a subtle, refreshing finish.

Food & Wine
