Chateau de l’Ou Secret de Schistes Cotes Catalanes Blanc 2022
Severine Bourrier, together with her husband Philippe own and operate the Chateau de l’Ou in France’s Rousillon region. Named “L’Ou” or “egg” due to the oval shape of the property, this little Chateau and it’s owners have pushed forward both the reputation and quality of biodynamic winemaking in the region. Severine studied viticulture in Bordeaux, but moved to the Roussillon after meeting her husband Philippe at a wine fair. She makes wines of incredible complexity masked by a friendly and easy-drinking exterior. If you’re really looking to drink well-crafted, top notch wine at a bargain, Severine’s wines are the way to go. *Organic*

"The 2022 Côtes Catalanes Secret De Schistes Blanc is all Grenache Gris that was raised in a mix of barrels and amphora. Attractive apple and melon fruits, some honeyed mineral and floral nuances, medium to full body, and both good concentration and acidity all make for a beautiful white wine in the making."
