Description
Blanc de Noir from Languedoc, France
BLANC DE NOIR
A truly distinctive white wine made from black Grenache grapes with minimal skin contact during pressing. Blanc de Noir, meaning ‘white from black’, leans toward white peach, and pink grapefruit flavours with subtle spice. Herbaceous notes, soft echoes of red apple and strawberry, and crisp acidity finish out this showpiece.LANGUEDOC, FRANCE
Grenache enjoys ideal conditions in this coastal region, where cooling sea breezes moderate the hot, sunny Mediterranean climate. The most common soils are limestone and clay, which help retain moisture in the dry landscape. Limited rainfall and coastal winds yield concentrated fruit, enabling expressive, innovative styles.
