Origin

Produced in France, Petit Balthazar sources its Viognier grapes from carefully selected vineyards known for their optimal terroir conditions that enhance the varietal's aromatic profile.

Variety

The wine is made exclusively from Viognier grapes, a white grape variety renowned for its aromatic intensity and rich texture.

Production

The Viognier grapes are hand-harvested at optimal ripeness to preserve their delicate aromas. The winemaking process involves gentle pressing and fermentation at controlled temperatures to maintain freshness and aromatic complexity. The wine may undergo a short period of aging in stainless steel tanks to retain its vibrant character.
