It charms us with its fragrance and intense perfumes and fruity notes. It has a lengthy and aromatic palate. Eclisse is a fine, elegant blend top expression of white wines typical of this terroir. It has a heady smell joining Sauvignon elegant aromaticness and Picolit fruit complex richness; green scents, perfumes of wild flowers and white pulp fruits, such as peach, merge in a fascinating fragrance. Freshness and minerality combine with a good smoothness, in a body showing harmony, big depth and persistence.
Each vine is harvested in order to reach a perfect maturation. Pressing is made on whole grapes. Pressing is made on whole grapes. Fermentation occurs separately for each grape variety, part in temperature-controlled (max 18˚C) stainless-steel vats and part in Allier oak barriques. The long contact with fine lees allows to produce a wine with great extract and aromatic complexity. Once assembled, “Eclisse” cuvèe further ages in temperature-controlled steel vats until bottling. Then, the wine ages in horizontally placed bottles to reach its perfect evolution.
