The soil is worked mechanically to manage weed cover. Practices such as ridging, hoeing and intercepting to manage the grass under the rows ensure that the soil is kept alive. The vines are on average 40 years old, planted at 6,500 stocks per hectare and pruned using the Guyot poussard method. The grapes are harvested mechanically, with an average production of 50 hl\/Ha.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVinification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe harvest date is chosen after tasting the grapes to ensure that all the aromatic and analytical criteria are gathered together. Mechanically harvested, the grapes are pressed and then cold settled. Alcoholic fermentation is carried out partly with indigenous yeasts and partly with bayanus-type yeasts to allow the terroir to express itself. Temperature control is essential for the finesse of the wines. Alcoholic fermentation takes place at low temperature in stainless steel vats. Finally, the wines are matured on their lees until bottling, to ensure that they retain their finesse and distinctive character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEYE: \u003c\/strong\u003ePale yellow colour with golden hues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOSE: \u003c\/strong\u003eFresh notes of citrus and flowers such as orange blossom and honeysuckle, followed by notes of white fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePALATE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lively on the palate, the long-lasting aromas of white fruit and zest are underpinned by a salivating bitterness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo be enjoyed young, from 2 to 5 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom aperitifs to cheeses and starters (seafood, cold fish).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pauline Pabiot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42970408124501,"sku":"Pabiot-PF25","price":42.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0026\/1740\/9589\/files\/IMG_4655.png?v=1788968822","url":"https:\/\/mindspirits.com.au\/products\/pabiot-pauline-aoc-pouilly-fume-le-coteau-12-750ml","provider":"Mind Spirits \u0026 Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
