Our oenologists' opinion
Fruity and crisp
The clean, fresh nose reveals a lovely aromatic intensity, typified by notes of boxwood and exotic fruit, with hints of mango and passion fruit, offering a lively, mouth-watering expression.
The attack is taut, revealing a fine balance and tension that energise the tasting.
Its light body highlights a fresh citrus character, which carries through to a taut, sapid finish, punctuated by a hint of minerality that adds finesse and precision.
A bright, lively wine, ideal with seafood or ceviche.

Features
Body ? The body is the way a wine feels inside the mouth. Several factors, such as the alcohol content and the presence of tannins, contribute to the feel of the wine.
Freshness ? The freshness of a wine is defined by its level of acidity. Unlike rounded wines, fresh wines are easy to drink, and are more lively. Acidity plays a necessary part in a wine's structure.
Aging ? All wines do not have the same aging potential. Some are supposed to be consumed at a young age while others must be kept for longer periods of time.

MAISON CASTEL
Sauvignon Blanc thrives beautifully in Pays d’Oc, where the Mediterranean climate, warmer and drier than its native Bordeaux, provides ideal conditions for perfect grape ripening.
This wine is distinguished by fresh citrus and tropical fruit aromas. The influence of sea breezes and the clay-limestone soils of the terroir enhance the freshness and complexity of this grape variety.
Maison Castel carefully selects specific vineyard plots to ensure harvesting at the optimal moment. A meticulous winemaking process follows:
- Gentle pressing,
- Cold settling, followed by racking,
- Alcoholic fermentation at a controlled temperature between 15° and 17°C.
Finally, aging on fine lees for 3 to 4 months refines the aromas, producing wines that are elegant, delicate, and lingering on the palate.
