Kami del Drak Karinyan Blan 2022

Art. # 6177
The series of three wines Kami del Drac, or 'The Dragon's Path', is named after a characteristic rock formation resembling a dragon. This wine is made entirely from Carignan Blanc, and the old vineyard with this rare mutation of its more famous red sibling is located at an altitude of 500m, between the peaks of the Pyrenees and the Mediterranean coast. The grapes are hand-harvested at least a month later than the other white varieties of Roussillon. It follows a long, slow fermentation, prolonged contact with the fine lees, and the result is an expressive, floral, and vibrant wine, with moderate alcohol, aromas of citrus fruits combined with fine herbal notes and minerality to the finish.
Alc. 12.5 %

Languedoc-Roussillon

Languedoc-Roussillon

Languedoc has been an important center for winemaking for several centuries, with the port of Sète and the connection to the Atlantic Ocean through the 17th-century Canal du Midi providing key trade routes. Looking back, there is evidence of Roman winemaking in the area. The ruins of a first-century winery are located near Clermont, west of Montpellier. The Mediterranean climate and abundant land with soils ranging from rocky sand to dense clay have long been considered very suitable for wine production. However, the heritage of Languedoc-Roussillon is often overlooked in modern times, as the region gained a reputation for producing quantity over quality. Today, the face of Languedoc-Roussillon wine has drastically changed. More viable grape varieties have been planted, and names like St Chinian, Faggères, Corbières, Pic St Loup, and Terrasses du Larzac are becoming increasingly known among sommeliers and wine lovers - and the wines are often offered as great value for money on the wine lists of the best restaurants.

Carignan Blanc

Carignan Blanc

The white mutation of this variety, better known to us as black grape, is known as Carignan Blanc in the south of France, with fewer vineyards now than half a century ago, but it is increasingly valued as an ingredient in high-quality white wines. Like the dark-skinned version, it buds and ripens late and is very susceptible to powdery mildew, but it retains its acidity well and the alcohol content is usually moderate. As Carignan Blanc in France, or Carinena Blanca in Spain, the variety produces light citrus flavours and is usually used in blends, but also for single varietal wines.
