Bruno Lafon, Alcohol-Removed Sparkling Rosé, Brut
Bruno Lafon, Alcohol-Removed Sparkling Rosé, Brut
This wine is made in collaboration with a family estate for 4 generations located at the gates of Béziers, facing the Mediterranean Sea. For more than 30 years, François Pugibet and son Vincent have been recognized for the quality of their wines and their innovations (notably in the process of making low and/or alcohol-free wines). Today, Vincent is focusing on the development of new resistant grape varieties that allow for pesticide-free viticulture.
Presentation
Want something a little lighter to drink over the summer without compromising on taste and without going completely ‘dry’? Partly in defiance to the recent norms and partly out of respect for the old ways, Vincent & François seek to return to the origins of winemaking and to offer more approachable and balanced wines that are low in or without alcohol.
Winemaking
The fruit is gently handled and fermented at cool temperatures in the winery to ensure the wine has bright aromatics and fresh fruit flavors, without compromising the palate weight, texture and length before the base wine it is moved on to a state-of-the-art dealcoholization process. Using proprietary technology, the winery delicately removes the alcohol molecules from the base wine and makes it ready to be made into sparkling, it is transferred into Charmat tanks the sensors on the tank measure the progress of pressure build up in the tank. Once the wine has reached its target pressure the wine is chilled down to stabilize it and left to settle prior to isobaric bottling
