Cuvée X-LV
The white

• Made with Grenache blanc, Viognier, clairette et Roussane.blended in the presse in identical proportions, with a touch of Viognier

• After the must has been yeasted, it is fermented at 17°C to a density of 1010, then poured into new barrels. The barrels are chosen according to the vintage, to create a harmony between the wine and the origins of the oak.

• The lees are stirred every day. The wine is matured for 6 to 8 months in the barrel, then returned to the tank to complete the maturing process before bottling.

• Two wines will be produced from
  2004 : one will emphasise aroma and finesse, while, with the other, we will work on strength, with partial fermentation in new barrels.

• Both wines will be blended as the grapes are brought in from harvesting. This vinification method is one of font Alba's distinctive features.
