In the Glass — Tasting Notes

Pale gold clarity with youthful promise. Lemon and grapefruit flood the palate with real snap; white stone fruit fills the middle, anchored by the saline, mineral quality that limestone and sand terroir brings. The acidity is the kind that makes you reach for the next glass. Colombard, Rolle and Grenache Blanc work in concert—citrus backbone, salinity and white-fruit appeal, with Viognier adding rounded softness.

The Winery — Domaines de Lamy

The De Lamy family, proprietors of the historic Château Fontarèche (held by the Mignard lineage since 1642), now steward these IGP vineyards in Languedoc. Winemaker Vincent Dubernet carries forward his father's legacy of careful cellar work. The 2024 vintage benefited from spring rain and measured ripening through cooler April and May; September harvest captured unhurried maturity. After destemming and a two-hour cold soak, fruit fermented in stainless steel before spending time on fine lees to add subtle texture. Morning harvest and 12-day fermentation at 17°C preserved the brightness this vintage deserved. The blend is 50% Colombard, 30% Rolle, 13% Grenache Blanc and 7% Viognier.

At Your Table — Food Pairing & Serving

Drink this cool—8–10°C—with oysters, clams, grilled fish or as an aperitif before dinner. At 13% alcohol, it's approachable and food-friendly, exactly what the vintage and terroir deliver. If you're exploring the lighter, mineral-driven whites we carry from Languedoc-Roussillon, this is essential tasting; it also holds its own beside richer examples of Grenache Blanc & Roussanne we've curated. A screwcap closure keeps everything fresh and ready to pour.
