The palate carries all of that with excellent length, a hint of white pepper and a sapid finish, held together by real freshness. Chardonnay 40%, Petit Manseng 30%, Chenin Blanc 20%, Sauvignon Blanc 10%.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe producer\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDomaine Lafage sits between Perpignan and the Spanish border in the Côtes Catalanes, in Roussillon, and has been run by Jean-Marc and Eliane Lafage since 2001, on an estate whose winemaking history dates back to 1798; the couple harvested and made wine in South America, California, South Africa and Germany before settling back home. The Chardonnay, Petit Manseng and Chenin come from a hillside near Limoux on clay-limestone, under a continental climate, while the Sauvignon Blanc grows at 450 metres above Saint-Martin de Fenouillet on granite arena and black schist. The vineyards are worked by regenerative agriculture – low-density plant cover, no ploughing, and biochar to build the soil's biological and physical fertility – with different methods of cultivating water being trialled against Roussillon's extreme drought. The grapes were cold-macerated on skins for 24 hours, the juice stabilised for 30 days, then fermented in cask and aged on its lees for 18 months.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFood and drinking\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eServe at 10–12°C.
