Château St. Jacques d'Albas Albas Blanc 2021 AOP Minervois Organic , 0,75 L

White wines from Languedoc, especially the Minervois, are increasingly captivating us. Why? Because exceptional grape varieties thrive here, perfectly suited to warm regions, delivering fresh and surprising wines.

In this cuvée, Marsanne and Roussanne are expertly blended, with subtle ageing in wood that enhances the wine's character. On the nose, light-coloured fruits mingle with a hint of herbs, subtle vanilla, and orange. The palate is compact and fresh, with lively acidity, and flavors of pear, ripe apple, orange zest, and vanilla. The fresh acidity invites the next sip, while the long, creamy, and elegant finish, accented with a hint of herbs, leaves a smile on your lips.

This excellent white wine shines in a large glass and pairs beautifully with many Mediterranean dishes, but it also stands out splendidly on its own.
