Domaine Gayda, En Passant White 2023

Get to know: Domaine Gayda, En Passant White

Tasting Note

Inspired by The Passenger, the pop-rock anthem by the iconic Iggy Pop, this wine expresses Domaine Gayda's nomadic spirit. Travelling, with rucksack on their back, they are guided by the search for unusual terroirs, pausing for a moment to reflect on the creation of these unique blends… just passing through…

On the nose, you’ll notice lovely hints of Granny Smith apple, zesty lime, and fresh almonds, all typical of the Rolle and Viognier grape blend. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and generous, with a nice balance of acidity and a gentle bitterness at the end. There’s also a hint of minerality that adds a bit of intrigue to the finish. Flavours of fresh pear, acacia flowers, almonds, and white peach come together beautifully, giving you a refined and well-balanced tasting experience.

Try this with roast chicken or creamy sauces.

Kate Says

This white is beautifully aromatic, with floral and stone fruit notes that make it truly stand out. It’s a versatile choice for any occasion, pairing wonderfully with roasted chicken or creamy pasta dishes. An elegant, yet approachable wine that's well worth a try.
