The grapes grew on gneiss, granite, and loess soils. The aromatic richness of this Viognier from Domaine des Miquettes is enhanced by the terracotta vinification process, consisting of a ten-day maceration followed by pressing and aging for eight months in kvevri (a Georgian-style buried terracotta jar).\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTasting\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a distinguished, fresh, pleasant, and easy-drinking Rhône Viognier.

At the heart of this centuries-old viticulture is the kvevri, the buried jar where the entire winemaking process takes place. They also have unburied tinajas (Spanish jars) for fermentation and maceration, while kvevris are used for aging. No sulfites are added to the wines of Domaine des Miquettes. The astringency of the tannins is polished by the terracotta, which produces a velvety texture, a fruity and supple substance. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThe Estate\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePaul Estève learned his trade from René-Jean Dard and François Ribo, two great figures of natural wine in the Rhône Valley. With Chrystelle, he gradually rebuilt the family estate until it reached 4.3 hectares. The plots, located between 300 and 450 meters above sea level, rest on a granite base with light mica and gneiss soils. The agriculture is organic (Ecocert certification) and biodynamic. The soils are worked by horse or winch and pickaxe, and the harvest is manual. No chemical inputs are added to the vineyard work and winemaking.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine des Miquettes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55867920449920,"sku":"FPAESVIOG22BLT75","price":28.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0913\/1547\/0720\/files\/Domaine-des-Miquettes-Vin-de-France-Viognier-blanc-vin-naturel-2022-1.jpg?v=1785921973","url":"https:\/\/culinaries.fr\/en\/products\/vin-de-france-viognier-blanc-2022-domaine-des-miquettes","provider":"CULINARIES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
