Producer:
In the small picturesque town of Remich on the left bank of the Moselle river, the father and daughter duo, Laurent and Corinne Kox, are making truly exceptional still, sparkling and sweet wines in their own unique style.
Third generation, Corinne is the young gun, the ambitious winemaker slowly taking over from her traditional father. He still has the upper hand on traditional winemaking, and masters the best qualities of Riesling, Pinot Blanc, Auxerrois, Gewürztraminer and Saint Laurent, while she is bringing in ancient and more contemporary practices into the vineyard and cellar from drones to Qvevri to Luxembourgish oak barrels.
Vinification:
Manual harvesting, pressing of whole grapes with inclined plate pressing, juice splitting, fermentation of the cuvées in stainless steel vats, thermoregulation. Ageing in stainless steels vats with 36 months on fine lees.
Tasting:
Medium - gold in appearance with a fine and smooth effervescence in the glass. Ripe yellow apple, fresh grapefruit, cantaloupe melon and white berries and brioche
