Distributor's Notes:

"Deliciously fresh and fruity, Météorite is the Méthode Ancestrale gamay made by rising star Romain Paire. The grapes come from 10 to 30 year old vines, planted on granitic soil in the southern part of the Loire Valley, on the first foothills of the Massif Central. They are picked by hand. Direct pressing, settling and fermentation in stainless steel tanks at low temperature, with indigenous yeasts. After bottling, the wine is aged for 6 months on its lees. 9% alcohol and 10 to 12 grams of natural residual sugar."
