Producer Information

Founded in 1995, Calmel & Joseph is a maison de negoce specializing in Languedoc-Roussillon wines from private wineries from across the region. Over the years, they have built close personal relationships with a large number of growers from all appellations. Convinced of the extraordinary potential of this region, oenologist, Laurent Calmel, and Jerome Joseph work together on the vinification, blending and ageing of wines with the common purpose of demonstrating the little known yet unique quality of these Mediterranean terroirs. As well as their desire to produce high quality wines consistent with their terroirs, they are committed to making wines which reflect their convictions and experience.

Grapes

Carignan Blanc,

Production

100% Carignan Blanc grown on gneiss and granite mountain arenas.

The entire winemaking process is carried out without any addition of sulphites. The grapes are picked by hand, sorted in the parcel which is a field blend of the different Carignans – black, grey and white. Only the white grapes are picked for this wine. A conveyor belt carries them to the press, where they are pressed then the juice undergoes static settling for 48 hours. Alcoholic fermentation starts spontaneously and last 15 days at 18°C. Malolactic fermentation takes place naturally in the days that follow.
The wine is then kept on fine lees until bottling to avoid any oxidation.

Aged in concrete vats for 3 months.

Tasting Notes

A beautiful delicate gold colour, with a seductively floral nose that opens with expressive notes of lilac, elderflower, and cherry blossom before developing, after a few swirls in the glass, richer notes of vanilla, but also mineral, flinty notes. An extraordinary freshness that is the signature of its altitude terroir. The palate offers almonds, walnuts and candied fruit, raisins, wild blueberries, and a spicy finish of cinnamon, cumin, and saffron with lightly bitter notes and a touch of salinity. This “forgotten” grape can hold its own on the very best tables and has shown itself to be one of our finest ambassadors.
