Product Notes

Domaine de Baronarques Blanc is a stunning French white wine. Displaying a luscious balance of richness and vivacity, it entices the palate with delicate notes of white flowers, citrus, and a hint of exotic fruits. The beautifully structured wine, coming from the revered Limoux region, reflects complexities of Chardonnay, Marsanne, and Roussanne grapes. One cannot overlook the gentle sweetness, balanced by crisp acidity, providing an appealing finish. The wine's organic credentials, along with its exquisite creamy texture, suggest fine ageing potential, making it a versatile choice for savouring alone or pairing with diverse cuisines.

Tasting Notes

The wine has a crystalline aspect with a greenish tint. The complex and varied nose reveals intense aromas of acacia blossom enhanced with honeyed pear and citrus notes. With airing, it expresses perfectly ripe fruit mingled with spicy and white pepper notes. The fresh and crisp attack leads into a full and succulent mid-palate. Lime flavours dominated by generous, tangy fruit give a certain tension to the wine, which ends on notes of patisserie and flaky pastry. The long and elegant finish lingers on a thoroughly mineral freshness.

About the Winery

Domaine de Baronarques

Nestled in the heart of the Languedoc region, Domaine de Baronarques is a distinguished winery that oozes sophistication and class. A world-renowned establishment, the winery is celebrated for its remarkable capability to produce phenomenal wines imbued with outstanding character and depth of flavour.

The winery's provenance is rather intriguing; once a part of a 17th-century monastery, it has been developed and cherished over centuries and came into the spotlight largely through the auspices of the renowned Rothschild family. Domaine de Baronarques boasts a colourful narrative that enhances the visitor experience along with enriching its prized bottlings.

The winery spans an impressive 118 hectares and every inch is laced with various grape-bearing vines. Among the varieties grown on the property are Bordeaux varietals such as Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc - alongside these stand the languedoc varieties like Syrah, Grenache, and Vermentino. The soil composition of the estate is crucial in giving Domaine de Baronarques its distinctive taste, as the unique blend of clay, limestone and sandstone provides an ideal setting for the growth of top-quality grapes.

Visitors are invited for an immersive experience in this serene setting. Daily tours and tastings allow connoisseurs to delve into the rich traditions of the winery and imbibe its delicate wines. The estate's grandeur is reflected not only in their buttery Chardonnays and robust reds, but also in the picturesque views of the vines that stretch out, seemingly endless, under the warm Mediterranean sun.

True to its heritage, Domaine de Baronarques continues to craft exquisite wines. With a perfect balance of modernity and tradition, wine-making here is an art form, one you're invited to experience and savour to the fullest.

As a beacon of gastronomical excellence, Domaine de Baronarques is not just a winery; it's a charming world in its own right, creating a luxurious escapade for the senses and the soul; that's their passion and commitment ever since.
