A unique method…

After the harvest, during which the grapes are hand-picked, usually around the beginning of October, the Gamay grapes are rapidly pressed. The red grape skins colour the juice lightly. After fermentation, the young wine will conserve its very particular salmon-orange colour. Our use of this method for the Gamay grape is unique in the world.
Fermentation of grapes from each different plot is carried out separately in stainless steel vats that contain a total of 2500 hectolitres. The temperature in the vats is electronically controlled and regulated which enables us to obtain a maximum amount of fresh fruit flavour.

…for a unique wine !

Each of our wines is then assembled and bottled during the month of January. They are put on the market at the annual Wine Show in Toul in mid-April. Here at the LELIEVRE winery, we produce several different cuvées or batches each year, providing the consumer with an array of crisp fruity wines to choose from. Our Gris Wine will be perfect on many occasions.
