Cuvée Umami Extra-Brut 2009
The Cuvée Umami Extra-Brut 2009 is offered here as a magnum. It was created for the tenth anniversary of the Zoémie de Sousa line and comes from several carefully chosen plots belonging to the house. The name refers to the Japanese term umami, which for De Sousa describes the house style: length, depth, velvet, minerality and spice.
The grapes grow on old vines farmed biodynamically. This brings the soil to life and, in the house's view, strengthens the umami flavours. In the mouth you find a soft, velvety texture with a long finish and the clean line of an extra-brut. The large format suits a festive table with several guests. Serve it at 10 to 12 °C in a large white wine glass so that depth and spice can show.
