2021 Baronarques Blanc 6 Pack

The estate Domaine de Baronarques is situated in Languedoc, near Limoux, within the town of Saint-Polycarpe. Although acquired by the Rothschild family in 1998, the property's ancient origins date back to 780. The estate is nestled on a piedmont and spans 110 hectares in a contiguous plot, of which 43 hectares are under vines. Positioned 400 km from the Atlantic Ocean and 100 km from the Mediterranean, the vineyard is influenced by both of these climatic factors, ensuring it receives ample sunlight and well-balanced rainfall. Thanks to its proximity to the Pyrenees, the parcels' altitudes, ranging from 250 to 350 meters, temper the intensity of summer heat. The soil composition is predominantly clay-limestone, with a few parcels displaying gravelly and sandy characteristics.

Warm weather in early spring was followed by a north-easterly cold spell at the beginning of April. Hot and damp weather set in during the last fortnight of June and continued until mid-July. Despite a heatwave, regular light rain and damp mornings until the end of the month meant that July was cooler than the average. Temperatures in August were also lower than normal, with regular rainfall that staggered the ripening process over time. Tasting notes An attractive pale yellow. Aromas of citrus fruit, preserved lemon zest, white blossom, verbena and brioche mingle on the complex and intense nose. A clean and fresh attack leads into an expansive, full-bodied and voluptuous mid-palate, its attractive heft offset by remarkable freshness. Developing highly complex flavours of ripe fruit, honey and acacia blossom with touches of toast, it culminates in an exceptionally long and mineral finish.
