Botrytised wine called " Botrytised Viognier", is an inimitable and rare wine products in France (Ardèche)
Botrytised wine is a particular type of wine produced with grapes affected by botrytis (noble rot)
This "viognier" grape variety and local product grow near "La Véore" river because the wet favour the developpement of the noble rot (moist conditions)
Noble rot is the benevolent form of a grey fungus (botrytis), affecting wine grapes.
Grapes when picked at a certain point during infestation can produce particularly fine and concentrated sweet wine.
Botrytised wine is a delicious, unctuous nectar that through fermentation releases a golden, honeyed wine full of complexity and delicacy.
You can drink it at aperitif, at dessert, or with foie gras for example.
Newly or aged, this 2009 botrytised wine drank at 12° will be a real pleasure for your palate
Cheers !
