Riesling Vendanges Tardives come from the so-called noble grape varieties.
A very rich sweet wine, Vendanges Tardives are scarce. They are the fruit of exceptional harvest years. They harvest the grapes when over-ripe, with the development of noble rot. (Botrytis Cinerea).
Grape Variety: 100 % Riesling (sweet).
The development of Botrytis cinerea (noble rot) on the berries triggers an evaporation process which favours the concentration of sugar and aromas, giving these wines mellowness and strength.
The grapes are harvested exclusively by hand.
