Famille Perrin - Les Crus, AOC Beaumes de Venise, VDN Blanc, 2009

Located at the foot of the Dentelles de Montmirail, Beaumes de Venise has a particularly warm climate. This allows the grapes to reach full maturity and therefore produce a Vin Doux Naturel (fortified wine) that will go perfectly with desserts, especially fruity ones.

2009 is a great vintage of the Southern Rhône Valley. It’s a combination of ripe fruit, a rich and harmonious mouth and a fleshy finale with elegant tannins.

On the Dentelles de Montmirail between the town of Carpentras and the village of Vacqueyras.

Eroded porous limestone mixed with red clay and a large quantity of sand.

The winemaking process follows that of white wine for the most part; the grapes are crushed immediately. Racking of the must, low temperature fermentation. Fortification to keep a minimum of 125g of residual sugar. Fortification in stages. Exclusively stainless steel tanks with early bottling upon filtration.
