Beskrivelse
Petite Arvine er i sandhed en lokal drue. Den stammer oprindeligt fra netop Valais regionen i Schweiz, hvor den første gang blev omtalt tilbage i 1602. Vinen er idag kun tilplantet på cirka 154 hektar.
Druerne til Marie-Thérèses udgave stammer fra flere parceller, hvor jordbunden er ren skifer. Det giver en vin med udtalt friskhed og syre. Et studie i citrusfrugter, med både lime, grape, og yuzu i den super mineralske og saline eftersmag. En fuldstændig fantastisk oplevelse for de få – stærkt begrænset mængde!!
“The 2020 Grain Arvine de Fully is from the granite terroirs of Claives, Epalins and Seilles. The intensely colored wine is beautifully clear, fresh, precise and flinty in its noble, elegant fruit aromas that are completely intertwined with the herbal and stony notes of the finest Fully terroirs. Dense, round and beautifully balanced on the palate, this is a rich and intense, concentrated but lively and sustainably structured Arvine that didn’t ferment to fully dry, but that’s surely for good reasons. The 2020 is perfectly balanced and develops an enormously long and tensioned finish with mineral grip, very fine tannins and salivating salinity. Absolutely impressive again.” Stephan Reinhardt, Robert Parker.com
