All are kept whole-cluster except for part of the Chenin that gets direct-pressed. Everything goes into an epoxy tank, including the direct-pressed juice, to ferment and macerate for one month (malolactic occurring) without pump-overs or punch-downs. The wine is then pressed for free-run juice and just the start of the pressed-off juice. Lightly filtered (only the last 10 percent of the tank to remove lees sediment). \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eTrempette\u003c\/em\u003e, French for “dip,” references the technique of macerating whole clusters together with direct-pressed juice.

They produce an outstanding array of wines from Cabernet Franc, Grolleau, Gamay and Chenin Blanc. They practice biodynamic methods in their 13-hectares of vines. Christine and Joel run their domain to very exacting standards and as a result they produce stunning, natural wines—without employing artificial yeasts. The wines from Sablonnettes are not chaptalized or filtered, these wines are vibrantly alive.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jenny + Francois","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50524978413755,"sku":null,"price":33.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.buvonswine.com\/products\/sablonettes-trempette","provider":"Buvons Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
