Clos Sainte Magdeleine Cassis Blanc Bel-Arme 2021
$125.00
Description
The estate's top cuvée BEL-ARME, derives its name from Clos Sainte Magdeleine's oldest vineyards situated on the Cap Canaille - which happens to be France's highest sea cliff. This Cassis wine is made from versatile blend of Marsanne, Clairette, Ugni blanc & Bourboulenc, from vines planted over fifty years ago.
A very impressive Cassis wine from low-yielding 50+ year old vines, on the limestone slopes of the Cap Canaille. The wine undergoes an élevage that includes being left on its fine lees for several months, before bottling without filtration, giving it a fuller, richer body than the Clos Sainte Magdeleine standard white.
