Clos du Rouge Gorge - L'Ubac Blanc White 2019

Wine Region:Cotes-Catalanes,Languedoc Roussillon

Grape:Grenache Gris

Tasting notes:
The wine shows remarkable finesse and lifted aromatics. The fruit is sleek and polished, and the finish is impressively long, with the gneiss soil adding a subtle, stony edge. It’s a wine of such precision and style that it easily outperforms most white Burgundies.

About the winery:
Clos du Rouge Gorge, managed by Cyril Fhal since the early 2000s, is located in Latour-de-France, Roussillon. Fhal cultivates appoximately 7.5 hectares of vineyards using biodynamic practices, focusing on indigenous grap varieties such a Carignan, Grenache, and Maccabeau. The vineyards are situated at altitudes between 150 and 200 meters on diverse soils, including schist and gneiss, which contribute to the wines' freshness and minerality. Fhal's meticulous approach in both the vineyard and cellar results in wines that are elegant, balanced, and expressive of their terroir.
