2021 Domaine Calmel & Joseph Le Penchant Organic

Pale yellow, with golden highlights glittering with green. The nose is subtle and delicate, revealing acacia flowers and white peach, mango and ripe lemon, and a touch of aniseed. In the mouth, the balance of the tannins, the maturity and the freshness of the attack are astounding. It is an exemplary wine that is vibrant with energy, with a very Mediterranean palette of aromas taking in dill, mint, and aniseed, then after airing in the glass the tension eases to reveal vine peach, apricot, elderflower, and a hint of liquorice. Due to its continental position, the Domaine’s terroir gives us wine profiles of great elegance that promise magnificent evolution in the bottle.
