[message]Description
The Domaine was created in 1850 by the Jessiaume family. Between 2006 and 2020, the Domaine is owned by a Scottish businessman, Sir David Murray. After generations of Jessiaume making the wines, a new team has arrived in 2014 and the Domaine changed its direction. The wines are hand crafted with minimal intervention. In order to do that, new investments in equipment and renovating the winery took place immediately. Harvest and sorting are done by hand. Small elevators are used to fill the tanks. Vinification is done with natural yeasts and the extractions are gentle and controlled. The goal is to obtain elegant and fine wines which respect the terroir. After directly pressing the whole grapes, the juice is transferred to stainless tanks. The must is then put in oak barrels by gravity and naturally starts the alcoholic fermentation. The aging occurs on the lees for 12 months (15% of new oak) and then 4-6 months in steel tanks.

Tasting Notes
Pale lemon and lime color. The bouquet has a mix of fruits, some more exotic than others. Much cleaner and purer in the mouth with fresh apple notes behind, and a good acidity with a mineral tingle. Fine persistence.
