Low yield and healthy grapes are the basis for an intense, fruity wine. From hundreds of years old vineyards they selected seeds from those vines and planted a new vine. Thus the grapes used for Varidor have the characteristics of the early 20th century and thus the full range of Riesling aromas can be discovered. After smooth pressure, the juice is fermented without the addition of yeast and remains on the lees until bottling.
According to the Swiss newspaper Schweizer Blick, it is the best white wine from German-speaking countries. Pure, refined, juicy, fresh, well-structured, balanced and elegant Riesling. Aromas of passion fruit, apricot, lime, wild strawberry, jasmine and slate. One of Loewen's great wines with an amazing quality-price ratio. Enjoy the wine with fish, salads, vegetables and pasta with white sauces.
"La Fontaine" is a perfect area to produce the wonderful white Chateauneuf du Pape. The plots have a clay/sand and limestone texture and face north. This terroir allows Roussane to mature very well and also retain a wonderful level of freshness. Diverse composition of 100% Roussane. Color yellow-gold. The nose is rich in aromas of citrus fruits, tropical fruits, quince and honey, with a hint of vanilla. On the palate, the same aromas appear together with a fatness that combines exotic fruits and vanilla.
"La Fontaine" is often regarded as one of the best white Chateauneuf du Pape and is by definition an excellent wine for gastronomy. Enjoy between 1 and 8 years with fish dishes in sauce or foie gras, white meat and cheeses.
