Chateau Simone Description

Chateau Simone white wines are superbly elegant. In their young years they offer a wonderful golden colour with flavours that combine floral and fruity notes with a fine woody touch. They boast exceptional keeping potential. Adorning a golden hue as they mature they progressively acquire a nose that is both potent and delicate.

Vineyard - Mainly on north-facing slopes, limestone scree soil.
Average Age - More than 50 years old (some plots are more than a hundred years old). 
Varieties - Clairette 80%, grenache blanc 10%, bourboulenc 5%, ugni blanc 3%, muscat blanc 2%.
Harvest - Hand harvested, when the grapes are fully mature. Grapes sorted at the vine and in the cellar.
Vinification - Light crushing. Straining and pressing on a vertical hydraulic press. Promace reworked manually and light settling. Fermentation with native yeasts. 
Storage, Maturing - In small oak casks for 18 months, 6 of them on fine lees. Matured in barrels for one year befor bottling.

Staff Rated: 92 Points

The white from Simone is a truly unique creation based primarily on Clairette that is supplemented with Grenache Blanc, Bourboulenc, Ugni Blanc and a touch of Muscat Blanc. The white, brisk in its youth, animated by a bouquet of pine-resin, evolves slowly into a sensual masterpiece with its lingering finish built on minerality. This is a remarkably age-worthy.
