CHATEAU DE BERNE ''LA GRANDE CUVEE'' BLANC 75cl
In its pretty square bottle, with a black and gold label, the Grande Cuvée blanc de Berne has a very nice ageing potential. Aged on lees for 10 months, after a short fermentation in vats, then in acacia and oak barrels, the Grande Cuvée white wine reveals the best of the terroir of Provence.
The tasting of this exceptional wine reveals an intense colour with a lovely bright and golden yellow. Then, the nose expresses itself with complexity, revealing aromas of butter biscuit and brioche, but also of exotic fruits.
Once on the palate, the white GC de Berne offers a nice balance and notes of toasted hazelnut, milk bread, pineapple and liquorice. This wine is a marvel when it accompanies foie gras, beautiful poultry, or fish.
To make this unique white wine, the winemakers of Bern use two white grape varieties:
Rolle, a grape variety that produces wines with aromas of apple, pineapple and pear;
Sémillon, a white grape variety that guarantees white wine with notes of honey and candied fruit.
