Sous le Végétal

Sous le Végétal est le projet viticole ambitieux fait maison, né sur l'île grecque de Samos. Initialement imaginé par Jason Ligas, le projet a pris un nouvel essor grâce à l'expertise de Patrick Bouju, figure emblématique du vin naturel en Auvergne, et au soutien indéfectible de la Maison Culinaries. Ensemble, ils ont insufflé une nouvelle vie à ce terroir unique, en s'appuyant sur le savoir-faire ancestral d'une coopérative locale et en sublimant le cépage emblématique de l'île : le muscat petit grain.

Palli & Genesià White 2018

Sous le Végétal


The name of this cuvée evokes a rebirth: this is the meaning, in Greek, of the word palingenesià ("new birth"). It is, in fact, an abandoned mountain vineyard that begins a second life thanks to Jason's team: a resurrected vine. It is a maceration wine of great finesse and beautiful minerality, with all the freshness of the high-altitude vine.

Where?
The vineyard, located in the village of Platanos, on the slopes of Mount Karvounis, rests on a pink granite subsoil.

The vines
Small-grain Muscat of Samos, cultivated organically in conversion to permaculture. The vines are pruned in goblet form and the harvest is entirely manual.

Vinification
Free-run juice obtained by maceration in stainless steel vats by diffusion for forty days, whole bunches. Vinification without aeration or stabilization; only settling, pumping over and topping up are carried out. Vinification in 750-liter amphorae. Wine without additives, unfiltered, bottled by gravity and transferred by peristaltic pump into black bottles ensuring aging. Aged in bottles with organic cork stopper without paraffin, sealed with a mixture of paraffin and black beeswax.
