Elite d’Or Blanc from Domaine de la Baume is a rich and expressive southern French white, blending Chardonnay and Rousanne to create a wine of depth, texture, and aromatic complexity. Carefully matured in new oak barrels with full malolactic fermentation, it delivers a creamy, layered palate without losing the vibrancy and purity of the fruit.
Tasting Notes:
Brilliant straw in colour, the nose shows elegant aromas of yellow peach, nectarine, and ripe orchard fruit, framed by delicate toasted notes and a mineral edge. The palate is full-bodied and generous, with luscious vanilla and hazelnut flavours, fine oak integration, and a long, persistent finish.
Winemaking:
The wine is fermented in new French oak barrels and aged on fine lees for one year with periodic stirring, allowing the natural richness of the grapes to develop while enhancing aromatic complexity and mouthfeel.
Food Pairing:
Perfect with roasted poultry, creamy seafood dishes, mushroom risotto, or lightly spiced white meats, this wine is also a sumptuous choice to serve at a dinner party or special occasion.
ABV: 13.5%
