Bellet Clos Saint-Vincent Vino di Gio Famille Sicardi-Sergi 2015

The wine

A brilliant Folle Noire cuvée from Clos Saint-Vincent, produced from biodynamically cultivated vines grown on pebble and fine sand soil. The fruit is hand-harvested at peak maturation and is sorted before vinification in stainless steel vats interspersed with manual punch-downs. The wine matures in French oak barrels for between 12–16 months and is bottled without fining or filtration. Velvety and concentrated, this cuvée retains an irresistible freshness. Here we have a certified organic wine best enjoyed alongside regional Provencal specialities. 

About the Producer Clos Saint-Vincent

Since 1993 Joseph Sergi has been at the helm of this 9 hectare vineyard which sits on Mount Saquier, in the region of Nice. This winegrower also happens to be the head of the local Bellet appellation, which comes as no surprise when one considers the tremendous upsurge in quality of the wines from this domaine. Clos Saint-Vincent adheres fiercely to the priniples of biodynamic winegrowing, earning a Biodyvin certification. The vineyard is exposed to the briny sea breeze and cool wind from the southern Alp foothills and cultivates many regional varieties such as Rolle, Braquet and Folle Noire. These wines have distinct personality.
