2022 Domaine du Gringet, 'La Paille' Ayze Blanc, Savoie, France Santa Duc followed by 3 months inThe Gringet here comes from a South facing, sunny and precocious terroir planted at old vines (between 1929 and 1931) on white marls. After a gentle, slow cycle press and 24 hour dbourbage, the wine feeds into concrete eggs where it rests until bottling. Once bottled (always unfiltered and unfined) it sees a further 10 month ageing in bottle.
