The wine region of Wallonie
Southern Belgian vineyard (~36% of national production), clay-limestone and schist soils, cool temperate climate. Signature Chardonnay as white king (32% of Belgian vineyard): taut and precise with notes of citrus, green apple, white flowers and chalky touch — base of fresh sparklers and chiseled whites on the rise. Aerial Pinot Noir (cherry, raspberry, undergrowth), round Pinot Meunier. Crémant de Wallonie as flagship specialty.
The word of the wine: Film maceration
A technique that consists of leaving the grapes to macerate in the open air at a low temperature before fermentation, thus enhancing the aromatic expression of the wine.
