Terres d'Edouard, AOC Ventoux, 2023

About the Wine

Terres d’Édouard Blanc is the pride of Domaine Plein Pagnier, representing their first venture into white wine production. It is a blend of very old Clairette plots with more recent plantings of Viognier, Roussanne, and Grenache Blanc. The vineyards are located on the southern slopes of Mont Ventoux and grow in sandy clay-limestone soils. Grapes are harvested exclusively by hand in crates, fully destemmed, and cold macerated before yeasting. The must undergoes fermentation at controlled temperatures, followed by racking and pressing of the marc. Malolactic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, and the wine is aged on fine lees before being filtered and bottled. Grape Variety: 50% Clairette, 20% Grenache Blanc, 15% Viognier, 15% Roussanne.
