Domaine d’Eole, located in the Coteaux d’Aix-en-Provence PDO, unveils its Confidence Blanc 2019 vintage. A 100% Roussanne southern white wine that surprises with its persistent freshness and perfect balance.
Produced from organically grown vines, Domaine d’Eole is meticulous, with rigorous pruning and spring disbudding to control yields, which do not exceed 28 hl/ha. Vinification is gentle, with short pellicular maceration followed by direct pressing. The wine is then aged in low-temperature barrels on total lees, with regular stirring of the lees for 6 months. Before bottling, the wine is lightly filtered.
Cuvée Confidence Blanc 2019 amazes from the first nose with aromas of acacia flowers. On the palate, citrus and marzipan notes mingle with pleasant freshness, smoothness and good length. The power of Roussanne is fully expressed in this surprisingly well-balanced wine.
This wine is a perfect match for scallop fricassee, roast veal with morel mushrooms or langoustine risotto. Serve between 12 and 15°C to fully appreciate its flavors.
Price incl. VAT: €26. You can find this cuvée in wine shops, direct from the domaine, and at www.domainedeole.com/nos-vins. So don’t hesitate to let yourself be tempted by this nugget of Provencal viticulture, and surprise your taste buds with this exceptional Roussanne.
