Shows lifted notes of elderflower, green lime zest, and boxwood. The
palate is ripe, offering zesty ripe citrus flavors coupled with an edge
of flinty minerality and asparagus keeping things framed and focused.
Sur-lies aging gives balancing flesh and creaminess to the wine’s crisp
refreshing acidity.

Location
Because the vineyards are located in-between the Pyrenees to the
South and the Black Mountains to the North, it enjoys a privileged
climatic position where the excesses of the Mediterranean climate are
tempered by the softness of the Atlantic influences. This
extraordinary mixture - where the days are sunny and warm, where
the wind blows almost continuously and where the nights are cool,
gives Cantalauze wines a particular charm
