White - Wine of France 2022
Terroir: Haute Vallée de l'Aude - Languedoc
Going up the course of the Aude and getting closer to the Pyrenees, our wetter and colder terroir experiences a late spring and a cool autumn. It is the terroir of choice for white grape varieties. Mauzac is an ancestral grape variety, mainly use for the sparkling Blanquette de Limoux. But when the vines are over 40 years old, their yields drop and offer juices of extraordinary organoleptic maturity. We select those juices to create one of the most surprinsing wine of our range.
Grape variety: 100% Mauzac
Winemaking:
Our grapes are grown according to the organic farming charter, they are harvested manually in 25 kg baskets, they must be healthy and at good maturity.

Tasting notes:Pale yellow color with discreetly green reflections. Fresh nose of apple, William pear, with a hint of quince and white flowers. A supple attack on the palate, then a slight acidity which accompanies the evolution and the finish, giving a nice overall balance. The aromas are identical to the nose with a hint of honey and citrus.
