Crus - Le Saint Festin Blanc
The terroir of Saint Chinian is better known for its reds than its whites, but this apparently arid and rocky land is in fact very varied. The altitude, the freshness, and the depth of certain soils lend themselves perfectly to making fine white wines.
This daffodil yellow wine gleams with myriad golden reflections. The nose is subtle and delicate with floral notes of white flowers and broom, followed by apricot, exotic fruit and finally vanilla and star anise. Barrel ageing has mellowed the tannins which are fine, fresh, and elegant. There is superb length on the palate with menthol, vine peach, and apricot, finishing on aniseed, fennel, and lovely mineral notes. A wine of great ageing potential which will develop splendid oxidative notes over time.
