A distinctive biodynamic Loin de l’Œil combining white flowers and ripe pear with creamy texture, mineral tension and an elegant almond finish.

🍇 About the wine

Le Clin d’Œil 2023 highlights Loin de l’Œil, a rare native variety from Gaillac. Fruit from a single plot on the Cordais limestone plateau is vinified with a focus on purity and terroir expression.

Fermentation in terracotta amphorae is followed by ageing in egg-shaped concrete vats, where the fine lees remain naturally suspended and add texture and complexity.
