This product is currently sold out.
In the words of Andy Cook, “think of it like a fortified Folio”. This rarity is a blend of 80% Grenache Blanc and 20% Grenache Gris from 30 year old vines in the south-facing Escoumes vineyard. Spontaneous fermentation and mutage (fortification) in barrel. Aged for 4 months in barrel.
Banyuls Blanc is a very rare style and we are lucky to get a small allocation of the very best. Philippe’s skill is on show here rendering a complex fortified white wine in a fresh, fruit driven way. This delight has it all: quince, ginger and roasted nuts, as well as lemon curd, grapefruit, plump peach and kiwi fruit. On the palate it is creamy, bright, balanced and flavourful. Top work from this benchmark producer.
