From the inventive team at Domaine Gayda, En Passant Blanc is a vibrant and expressive white wine inspired by Iggy Pop’s iconic anthem “The Passenger”.
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 apricot, Granny Smith apple, zesty lime, and fresh almonds, all typical of the Rolle (aka vermentino) 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 apricot pear, acacia flowers, almonds, and white peach come together beautifully, giving you a refined and well-balanced tasting experience.

"This is a proper sunshine wine. Fresh, bright, and full of Mediterranean character, it’s the kind of bottle you’ll want to open with a plate of seafood or just sip in the garden on a warm evening. A great choice if you love a white with both elegance and energy."
Domaine Gayda, nestled in Brugairolles near Carcassonne, is distinguished by a rich history and a philosophy focused on integrity and quality. Founded in 1749 as a coaching inn the farm buildings were gradually transformed into luxury accommodation, marking the beginning of a remarkable transformation. In 2004, under the enlightened leadership of owners Tim Ford and Anthony Record, in partnership with talented winemaker Vincent Chansault, the estate took a new turn by modernizing significantly.
It’s a wine that rewards curiosity – bright and elegant on the surface, but with layers of flavour that keep you coming back for more.
