2016 Domain Gauby Les Calcinaires Blanc, Côtes du Roussillon Villages

Gauby Cotes du Roussillon Blanc Les Calcinaire - uniting Chardonnay, Macabeu, Grenache Gris, Muscat, and Vermentino; grown on galets roules; pressed whole-cluster; and vinified largely in tank – delivers zesty grapefruit and lime with under-ripe yellow plum on an expansive and lushly-textured yet bright palate. Orange blossom and honeysuckle waft throughout, while a stony cantus firmus puts a floor under and thereby helps broadcast the appeal of fruit and flower. Nutty, resinous suggestions of pine nut add appeal to a lingering, at once both soothing and refreshingly stimulating finish.
