A Sauvignon Blanc, reminiscent of the grand wines of the Silex soils of the Loire Valley. Intense minerality, depth and elegance. Lightly herbal, lemon peel and nectarine are interwoven to a lingering expression of this grape.

Vinification

Numen refers to a metaphysical action that man can not influence. Accordingly, this wine is made completely without intervention. The idea was to let a wine "emerge" give it the necessary time and use the full potential of the old vines. The Numen-Fumé blanc was fermented in amphora with whole berries for a few days, then gently pressed, aged for over a year on the lees without sulphites and bottled unfiltered.
