__NOTOC__
== Description ==
Fill me Cantillon Vigneronne is a grape lambic produced yearly from Italian white grapes; most often of the Muscat varietal, though it depends on the harvest. It is bottled in75cl bottles and is generally bottled sometime between mid-October and late-November. Though the brewery states that it is only available in 75cl bottles, Vigneronne was also available in 37.5cl bottles on at least two occasions in 1999 and 2005. The fruiting process for Vigneronne consists of taking fresh grapes and placing them whole (without stems) into stainless steel tanks with two to three year old lambic for a saturation period of 1-2 months. It is then transferred oak barrels for further maturation.
== History / Other Notes ==
Fill me On Cantillon's official website they state that "the name Vigneronne Cantillon was given in1987" with a bottling presumably produced in 1989, though its history dates back much further than that. Jean-Pierre Van Roy first experimented with a white grape lambic in 1973<ref name="CantillonVigneronne>http://cantillon.be/br/3_105 Cantillon - Vigneronne</ref>, as well as a bottled version known as [[Cantillon_Druivenlambik_(Cuvée_Neuf_Nations)|Cuvée Neuf Nations]] in ___________. The label design for Vigneronne has remained relatively unchanged in both the imported U.S version and the European version since its creation by artist Raymond Goffin in 1989. ==Unsubstantiated Stories== Cantillon Vigenronne is alternatively known as Vigneronne Birra All'Uva (Vigneronne Grape Beer) in Italy.<ref name = LabelSite>http://www.vandewiele-m.be/bier/brouwerij/cantillon.html</ref>
