Tania and Vincent Carême Le Blanc Terre Brûlée 2020

Swartland, Coastal Region, South AfricaVincent Carême is a well-known Loire producer in Vouvray, at Domaine Vincent Carême. Even more interesting, his wife is South African, and together they farm just over four hectares of vineyard located on Swartland granite. Terre Brûlée is the winery's flagship label and delivers from start to finish at the flagship label. The vines are well on 40 years old and sit at a comfortable and cool 625 meters of elevation. The nose is fresh with a distinct bony saline nose, and the palate is tweaked with quince and green peach. There is intensity and length, and a suggestion you could age this for a decade. Another fine bottle with a highly consistent label you can count on every year.Tasted: 12 August 2022Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
