Type: White

La Porte Dorée is from 40 to 90 year-old Romorantin vines grown on clay soils with limestone bedrock. The juice undergoes a long, slow alcoholic fermentation and malolactic fermentation, and the wine ages in old foudres and barriques. Minimal SO2 is added before bottling. This is a very young wine that will benefit from decanting or 3 to 10 years of cellaring
