Description
Fox & Fox Mosaic Brut 2015 (75cl)
Viticulture:
The climate here is simlar to Champagne, allowing for a long,
even ripening season. The two vineyards lie on a combination of
ancient clay, shale and sandstone. Here Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier,
Chardonnay and Pinot Gris are grown from medium-yielding
Burgundy clones, trained on a double-Guyot trellising system. The
vineyard is worked rigorously by hand with great attention paid
to minimising spraying and maximising canopy management and
vine nutrition.
Winemaking:
This wine is a blend from both vineyards. Grapes are whole-
bunch pressed then the wines made according the the traditional
method with a second fermentation in bottle before a minimum
of 18 months’ ageing on lees
Tasting Note:
A soft, forward satiny style with gentle hawthorn, citrus white
peach and freshly baked bread notes. Fine balanced acidity and
lovely sherbet mousse. A lovely, approachable sparkling of great
appeal.
Food Match:
Ideal as an aperitif or with crab cakes and sushi.
Ageing Potential Up to 2 years.
