Wine of the week: Domaine Gardiés “Les Glaciares” 2011

Domaine Gardiés believes in living in harmony with nature, to understand that everything derives from the soil, and thus gives constant attention to it.  The result is delicate complex wines that express their terroir.  The Glaciares is a white wine made from 40% Grenache blanc and gris, 40% Rousanne, and 20% Macabeo.  Harvested by hand from the Vingrau, the families original land.  The nose is zesty with lime, pineapple, floral notes and a touch of oak.  On the mouth you will taste white pepper, peach and oakiness with a bright finish.
