Cantaca 2022 - Lafage 75cl

Cantaca 2022 is a blend of Chardonnay, Petit Manseng, Chenin, and Sauvignon Blanc. The Chardonnay, Petit Manseng, and Chenin come from clay-limestone soils on a hill near Limoux, while the Sauvignon Blanc grows at an altitude of 450 m on granite and schist soils in Saint-Martin de Fenouillet.

The Chardonnay, Petit Manseng, and Sauvignon Blanc grapes undergo a 24-hour skin maceration and 30 days of juice stabulation, followed by fermentation in foudres and 18 months of aging on lees. The wine has a brilliant golden yellow color and an intense nose with exotic aromas of pineapple, mango, apricot, and peach, combined with floral and cedar notes. On the palate, it is full-bodied and aromatic, with a fresh and delicious finish.

Perfect with ceviche, lemon chicken tagine, or duck à l'orange, this wine should be enjoyed within three years. Sourced from vineyards using Regenerative Agriculture, it reflects a particular focus on water conservation in drought conditions.
