Description
Domaine de Castelnau Sauvignon Blanc
Within centuries-old walls of this exceptional domaine situated halfway between the Mediterranean Sea and the Massif Central foothills, the modern winery of Domaine Castelnau produces aromatic, fruit-forward, easy to love wines. Béatrice and Christophe Muret harvest their grapes at full maturity, limit the use of sulfites, and age on lees to achieve fresh, smooth and delicious wines.
Vinification
Night mechanical harvest to preserve the grapes’ quality potential. Gentle de-stemming and pressing of grapes. Fermentation under temperature control. Grapes from different plots are separately vinified to keep each vine’s typicality and enable original blends. Aging on fine lees. Limited sulfites addition.
Tasting Notes
Light yellow color with green glints. The nose expresses mineral notes and reveals yellow peach and nectarine aromas. The palate is fruity and lively followed by a voluminous but well-balanced mid-palate offering notes of white flowers and lichees with a citrus finish. Very much appreciated as an aperitif, the Le Bosquet Cuvée also pairs perfectly with shellfish, all seafood dishes or asparagus with vinaigrette.
