A Selection of 3 High End Ratafias
Ratafia
It is aged in oak barrels that previously held Cognac and Sauternes wines, to which fresh grape juice is added. We only use the highest quality, offering the perfect balance between fruitiness and tension. For this terroir production, the bottle is unique with its round shape, highlighting an authentic and chic visual identity that lends our three Ratafias a single malt-like character.
Ratafia is not a sparkling wine
Ratafia stands out for blending unfermented grapes and brandy. Unlike sparkling wines, it's fortified, with rich flavors and sweetness. Similar to Champagne, terroir and grapes affect its aromas. Our Ratafias highlight fruit flavors, offering a delightful surprise. Its aromatic profile includes dried fruits, candied fruits, honey, and floral notes
The Solera method for aging our Ratafias
The Solera method is a perpetual reserve that allows blending between wines from different years. This aging process guarantees the stability of the taste and the balance between the fruitiness of the musts(grape juice) and the patina of the alcohol. It is used in the production of champagnes, vinegars or spirits such as rum or whiskey. It consists of stacking barrels on several levels. Then, the wine taken from one level is replaced by a wine from another. And each vintage, this technique is repeated until the barrels are filled with wine from the harvest of the year. This know-how of Maison COLLERY increases the aromas of the Pinot-Noir and Chardonnay grape varieties tenfold while preserving the house's signature.
