Vin blanc tête de cuvée

LA RENCONTRE

The wine is clear and bright, with a subtle golden hue. The nose is round and complex, with beautiful aromas of citrus, white fruits, and flowers. On the palate, it is round and dense yet harmonious and balanced, with a lot of aromatic freshness, fine expression, and a lingering finish.

LES INSTANTS

Ideal for pairing with delicate dishes, Clos de Caille “Lucis” 2023 will enhance a scallop carpaccio, a sauced fish, white meats, or aged cheeses.

TERROIR

Presence of loams, clays, and silica on ancient limestone soils, shaped by the formation of the Alps. These loam-limestone soils with high potential offer a perfect balance between the freshness provided by the notable silica component and the filtering capacities of limestone.
Located at 200 meters above sea level on the Triassic terrace, this unique terroir imparts concentration, freshness, and elegant roundness to the wines. The diversity of soils, from cool valleys with variable clay content to sun-drenched terraces rich in magnesian dolomitic limestone, enhances this harmonious balance.

« Crafted with the distinctive winemaking Excellence of Clos de Caille, our first flagship white cuvée embodies the perfect harmony between authenticity, tradition, terroir, and passion. » – Mathieu Mariotti

BLENDING AND VINIFICATION

100% Rolle, aged in 5 Hls French oak barrels (light toasting).
Parcel-based vinification after selecting the vines from the Clos’s highest-potential terroirs. Hand harvesting in small crates, with meticulous sorting in the vineyard. The crates are directly gravity-fed into a pneumatic press. The pressing (light pressure) is done with whole grapes to obtain clear juice, low in lees.
The juices are lightly settled through a cold process lasting several hours before being transferred into a fermentation tank. When alcoholic fermentation begins, the juices are transferred into new 5 Hls French oak barrels (light toasting), carefully selected from trusted coopers.
Aging continues for 8 months with regular bâtonnage, which allows the fine lees to be suspended, contributing roundness and complexity to the wine.
