The award of the highest level of environmental certification (HVE) is testament to the Domaine's efforts. Your go to summer drop!
Taste
Light yellow with green hints. The nose develops aromas of candied lemon, ginger and nutmeg with floral notes. On the palate, balanced and fruity with a floral bouquet and notes of lychee. A long finish of candied fruits and subtle fruit sweetness.
About the Producer
On the doorstep of the village of Castelnau de Guers, a few kilometers away from Pézenas and the Mediterranean Sea, the Domaine de Castelnau has very ancient origins. Owned by the Lords of Guers as early as the 13th century, Béatrice and Christophe Muret have lovingly been tending to their precious legacy since 1997, thus carrying on their wine-grower forefathers’ vocation.
Within the centuries old walls of the Domaine, lies a modern winery. The cathedral of concrete tanks has completely been renovated and stands alongside ultramodern stainless steel tanks.
The grapes are harvested at full maturity by night to preserve the optimum quality. The limited use of sulphites and the ageing on lees give birth to fresh, smooth and character filled wines.
Awarded HVE Label Certification (Haute Valeur Environmentale)
High environmental value (HVE) corresponds to the highest level of a more general scheme of environmental certification for farms. The farm environmental certification is a voluntary approach which aims to identify and promote particularly environmentally-friendly practices applied by farmers. HVE covers four key areas: biodiversity conservation, plant protection strategy, management of fertiliser use and management of water.
Th HVE level is based on performance indicators. Farm certification, which enables farmers to label their products with a value statement "from farms certified as having high environmental value", guarantees a farm's high level of environmental performance.
