Wine of the Week 5/12/20

Domaine La Patience Vin Blanc 2017
Regularly $14.99/On Sale for $12.96

This family estate located in the Costières de Nîmes takes its name from a wild, aromatic herb “La Patience” that can be found throughout the vineyard. After a decade of managing the winemaking at a local cooperative, Christophe Aguilar decided it was time to make his own wine. Today Christophe farms 60-hectares of vines, on the same old terrace, sandstone soil that his grandfather farmed fifty-years ago, and vinifies with natural yeasts and minimal sulfuring in the beautiful stone wine cellar that dates from 1930

Traditional Languedoc varieties Grenache Blanc and Vermentino are supplemented with Chardonnay for extra suppleness!
