Description
Bruno, Pierre and Dominique Fayet are the 6th generation to grow grapes at Domaine de Vedilhan, a large and historic estate which traces its viticultural history back to the Roman era. Uniquely a brook runs around the estate which provides much needed water in this very hot climate, giving the wines their freshness and appeal. Vines are managed using the ‘lutte raisonnée’ method and terroir is a combination of limestone, sand and sea shale, meaning the vines ‘dig deep’ for their nutrients and thus produce excellent quality grapes.
Tasting Notes :
This organic wine has tropical fruit, citrus, slightly honeyed, with hints of flint on the nose. The palate has lots of peach, guava, other stone fruit and fruit pastilles with good palate weight. Unquestionably, the near mineral texture in the finish craves to be an aperitif before oysters, lobsters and all ‘fruits de mer’.
