Lais is the name of Olivier's Jersey cow from Catalonia. The cow is on the label as a symbol of the diversity of the terroir of Calz. It has a very lovely bitter-sweet impression. It has an iris flower-like aroma, and the acidity is like black fruit. The fruity and floral flavor spreads in the mouth, and the smooth mouthfeel wraps the acidity in a veil, then spreads in the mouth. It is a fusion of fresh fruitiness and rich elegance.

Tasting Comments

Tasting Notes
A lovely bittersweet wine with an iris-like floral aroma and blackberry, blueberry and black raspberry-like acidity. Fruity and floral flavors spread in the mouth, and the low sulfur formulation of the pitons gives it a smooth mouthfeel and a veil of acidity that then spreads in the mouth. The aftertaste is stony.

Pairing
Red meat sauce, veal shank on the bone in tomato sauce

Technical Data

The grapes were destemmed and fermented for 3 weeks with wild yeasts in stainless steel tanks, then aged for 16 months in concrete vats.
