Jean-Michel Gautier/Domaine de la Racauderie
Vouvray Demi-Sec
-
Description :
Winemaking: Grapes are harvested manually and vinified by traditional methods. Fermentation and aging take place in stainless steel tanks or in large, older barrels. Gautier espouses a minimalist, hands-off approach. For sparkling wines, the vin clair is aged in tank and then transferred to bottles for the secondary fermentation, all of which happens in his underground cave. The bottles stay sur latte for 12-18 months, after which they are disgorged.
