Domaine D’Albas

 

Jun. 16

Hydrangeas in my garden are at their best now.

 

 

Beautiful!

 

 

 

1st Chateau Saint-Jacques d’Albas Domaine D’Albas Blanc 2017 1450 yen + tax It is made from Viognier and Vermentino grown in the estate vineyards in Minervois by “Method Cousinié, a special natural farming.

It is really, really tasty.

I felt outstandingly fine minerals, gorgeous fruits and many charming tastes.

Minervois produces mostly re wine but there is such nice white wine.

Beautiful!

 

 

2nd Chateau Saint-Jacques d’Albas Domaine D’Albas Minervois 2016 1450 yen + tax If you ask me,” Where is your best area in Languedoc?”

I will answer, ” It is Minervois.” With no doubt.

Languedoc produces mostly strong style red wines but the style of Minervois is elegant.

I felt very rich fruits, charming red berries and ultra-mild tannins.

It has some Burgundy wine nuance, I think.

Very delicious!
