Bellet Clos Saint-Vincent Vino di Gio Famille Sicardi-Sergi 2014
The wine
The Vino Di Gio white is a complex wine, the product of a vinification process involving skin-contact maceration, gentle pressing and settling prior to fermentation in barrels. After maturation, the wine is bottled without filtration. This cuvée is produced in extremely limited quantities (between 600 and 800 bottles per year), opening with aromas of white-fleshed fruits, citrus and baked brioche, tasting notes which are clues of ageing in wooden barrels. It has a long, chiselled finish and is full-bodied, unctuous and mineral in the mouth. This wine pairs best with Mediterranean-style aperitifs: olive tapenade, goats cheese or smoked fish parcels.
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.
