Information about "Mullineux Old Vines White 2024"
The Mullineux Old Vines White gracefully presents a pale straw color, revealing an enticing bouquet of white stone fruit blossoms, pear, and lively lemon with grapefruit undertones. Initial aromas of zesty grapefruit skin and ginger evolve into a multifaceted palate, highlighting white pear and nectarine, leading to a lengthy, refreshing acidity. This wine's exquisite structure comes from low-yielding, deeply rooted vines of Chenin Blanc, Clairette Blanche, and Grenache Blanc. Subtle hints of Viognier and Sémillon Gris add alluring floral notes, ensuring a delightful white wine experience!
The handpicked grapes were cooled in a controlled environment before being pressed. The juice was cold-settled overnight with minimal sulfur added. Fermentation, utilizing indigenous yeasts, lasted up to eight weeks. Each varietal aged on its lees until malolactic fermentation was complete, before blending. The wine matured for 11 months in third- and fourth-fill 500-liter barrels and a new 2000-liter Foudre made from French oak.
