Vieilles Vignes Blanc 2014 - Domaine du Clos des Fées
- Rate this wine
This wine is out of stock
The Vieilles Vignes Blanc is made of grapes coming from a parcel of 100 years old Grenache vines, which is quite unusual for a white! It shows a pale golden robe and a delicate nose of white peach, flowers and almonds. The palate is round, fruity with a very long, slightly sweet finish. It is very rare to see a white of such a quality in Languedoc-Roussillon! |  | ||||||

 | What experts say | ||||||
 | On 2012 vintage: 16 "Grenache Blanc. Sweet apricot fruit and creamy texture. Lovely medium body and soft acidity. Rounded, herbal finish." | ||||||
 | On 2013 vintage: 90 "The 2013 Grenache Blanc Villages Vieilles is an old-vine blend of 90% Grenache Blanc and 10% Grenache Gris that was brought up all in stainless steel. It has classic Grenache Blanc green citrus, crisp apple, honeysuckle and crushed-rock nuances to go with a pure, clean, crisp style on the palate. It’s beautifully put together and while I’d drink bottles over the coming couple of years, I suspect this will age gracefully." | ||||||
 | On 2012 vintage: 16 "An explosion of aromas and flavours. It is delicious, full of vine peaches, violet and pear. The palate is round and structured. A hugely seducing wine." | ||||||
