A pale, limpid, white wine, flecked with hints of green. This is made from a blend of Vermentino (60%) and Viognier (40%) on the clay/limestone soils of neighbouring Domaine Saint Hilaire.

The nose has aromas of citrus and pineapple with some bright notes of acacia flowers and apricot. The palate is full bodied thanks to two months on the fine lees. It is well-balanced with a crisp freshness. The lengthy finish reveals citrussy kumquats and pomelo grapefruit.

A delightful accompaniment to seafood and dishes with herby sauces.

Languedoc-Rousillon, France

The Languedoc is a vast region stretching across much of the south and Mediterranean and is France`s single largest vineyard entity for its Vins de Pays wines.

Within the Languedoc lie several distinctly identified Vins de Pays (including the l`Aude, Gard and Hérault) and many appellations that maintain traditional local blends and styles such as Minervois, Corbières, Pic Saint Loup and Fitou.

Viognier

Viognier originated in the Rhône Valley (in Southern France). It is a full bodied variety that loves warm climates. It is often left on the vines for a long time which allows its aromatic profile to develop. Common flavours and aromas include tangerine, apricot, apple, honeysuckle, baking spices, and ginger.

Prior to its renaissance, Viognier was reduced to just a few plantings, thankfully the variety is once again flourishing in the Southern Rhône and Languedoc.

Bob and Pat Middleton, Domaine Les Caizergues

In August 2017 two ambitious British wine enthusiasts, Bob and Pat Middleton, bought the vineyard after seeing its potential. They have introduced more modern and environmentally-friendly viticultural and vinicultural practices.

They are always mindful of the importance of heritage and terroir. The estate was formally accredited organic by Ecocert, in 2021.
