In a few words ...

Lucien aviet - melon red tail - cuvée des docteurs 2018le caveau de bacchus is based in montigny, in the jura region. It was founded in 1961 by Lucien Aviet, who was joined by his son Vincent in 1999. Lucien Aviet is still very much involved, but now the reins are gradually being taken over by his son. Comprising a small 6-hectare plot, the vineyard is traditionally oriented. Production is entirely hand-picked and grape-picked. Spontaneous fermentation takes place in large, old, well-maintained Alsace tuns. The bottles have always been sealed with wax, and are now part of the wine's trademark. The red melon tail is a white wine from the same family as the Chardonnay. The vines come from a sélection massale, small, light-colored berries with a stem (tail) that turns red as the grapes ripen. The ripening grapes are golden, sometimes turning a little pink, and give a white wine of great finesse, often with exotic, citrus and mineral aromas. The grapes are entirely harvested, and only indigenous yeasts are used for fermentation. Ageing lasts between 12 and 36 months in casks and on lees, until bottling. cuvée des docteurs" refers to the medical students who came to help lucien aviet during the harvest in the first few years.cépage : 100% melon à queue rouge
