Clos de lolol

White blend

This wine represents the essence of the cool climate of Lolol. It is made up of the best plots of four grape varieties that excel in the valley : Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay. They are grown in different parts of the estate that brings out the best of each grape variety and are blended together to give a bamanced and aromatic white wine.

  • Variety

    80% Sauvignon Blanc
    20% Chardonnay

  • Location

    D.O. LOLOL

  • Tasting notes

    Elegant and complex on the nose. Begins with mineral notes
    (stone), evolving into fruity aromas of grapefruit, white fruit, and
    sweet spices. Tertiary notes from the French oak emerge: present
    toastiness, vanilla. Bright greenish-yellow hue with subtle golden highlights.
    A characterful and complex wine, with a clear expression of lees
    work. The integration of oak is refined, and the amphorae contribute
    additional depth and a marked saline edge. Its vibrant acidity
    provides excellent support through the finish. A superb age-worthy
    white wine.

  • The Vintage

    The 2022 harvest presented an early challenge due to severe rainfall deficits
    during the 2021-2022 season, which reached only 50% of a typical year's
    precipitation. The yield was moderate, but it gave our 2022 wines greater
    concentration and structure. Significant diurnal temperature variation
    allowed for optimal phenolic ripeness and ideal enological maturity, resulting
    in remarkable freshness at harvest time

  • Suggestions

    Aperitif, crayfish with american sauce, foie gras.
