Star of our constellation, Soleilla shows us the way, that of a sensory journey, rich in emotions and meaning. Soleilla is also the voice of Nature, where everywhere biodynamics finds its expression. It is an invitation to look, contemplate, appreciate life differently in a unique natural setting. Villa Soleilla pays tribute to the first orange wines, made in Georgia 4,500 years ago using the same ancestral know-how.
Winemaker's note
The grapes, harvested by hand, are subject to maceration (carbonic or destemmed) before pressing in order to obtain a complex and varied aromatic expression while working on the tannic structure. After pressing, halfway through fermentation, the musts are placed in barrels and amphoras. The wine is aged for 8 months until bottling.
Tasting notes
The complex nose combines notes of garrigue, thyme, caramel and honey. The palate is full and complex. Spicy, fruity apricot aromas and floral notes are complemented by a harmonious tannic structure.
Food & Wine pairing
To be enjoyed with lamb tagine, roasted vegetables with mild spices and mature cheeses.
