Calmel & Joseph Le Saint Festin Saint-Chinian White
This full-bodied white is produced in Saint-Chinian, in the south region of Languedoc-Roussillon, and shows a beautiful yellow colour in the glass. Floral on the nose, with notes of pear, peach, and apricot, the palate is beautifully balanced, with rich flavours of stone fruits, lightly toasted oak, and fresh minerality that lingers on the palate. A great wine to serve with fish, summer salads, a vegetable crumble, a cheeseboard, or a parmesan fondue.
