Touraine Organic Gamay-Cabernet Franc, La Java des Grandes Espérances

A blend of about 85% Gamay and 15% Cabernet Franc, the Gamay supplies a soft, fruity aspect to the wine, whilst the Cabernet Franc complements this with darker fruit and a note of spice. The crushed grapes undergo a cold maceration for four days prior to the fermentation. The wine is pumped over the cap on a daily basis during the start of the fermentation and micro-oxygenation is carried out during the maturing process. Shows very fruity aromas of strawberry and raspberry, the palate is smooth finishing with a spicy note.
