A timeless expression of Clairette from the heart of the Languedoc
The Art de Vivre Clairette Blanc 2023 is a celebration of one of the Mediterranean's oldest grape varieties and the rich winemaking heritage of the Languedoc. Crafted by Gérard Bertrand, this elegant Clairette is lightly sweet in style, balancing delicate fruit with vibrant freshness. Harvested in the cool of the morning and gently vinified to preserve its natural aromatics, it is a beautifully poised wine that captures the warmth and charm of southern France.
Tasting notes: Delicate aromas of ripe pear, white peach and yellow plum are complemented by subtle floral notes and a gentle hint of citrus blossom. The palate is fresh, elegant and beautifully harmonious, combining juicy white stone fruit with a soft, rounded texture and lively acidity. A touch of natural sweetness is perfectly balanced by freshness, creating a wine that is refined, vibrant and effortlessly drinkable.
Food pairing: A beautifully balanced Clairette that shines as both an aperitif and at the table. Seafood: Fresh line fish, grilled sole or delicate seafood salads complement the wine's freshness and subtle fruit. Salads: Mediterranean salads with citrus, fennel or fresh herbs enhance its vibrant character. Light Poultry: Lemon-marinated chicken or turkey escalopes provide a wonderful balance to its gentle sweetness and lively acidity. Aperitif: Equally enjoyable well chilled on its own before a meal, particularly on warm summer afternoons.
