カルスの多様性を映す、塩気ある白。

Laisはオリヴィエが飼うカタルーニャ産の牛の名で、カルスのテロワールの多様性を象徴してラベルに描かれています。淡いレモンイエローの色調から、白い花やアカシア、熟した洋梨、柑橘の皮が繊細に立ちのぼり、石灰や火打石のニュアンスが複雑さを添えます。マカブとグルナッシュ・ブランの重厚さに、グルナッシュ・グリの華やぎ。シスト土壌由来の塩味が骨格を引き締めます。ホタテのポワレや鱈のブランダードと。

Tasting note

Tasting note

Pale lemon yellow colour. From the glass, delicate nuances of white flowers, acacia, ripe pear, and citrus peel emerge, while mineral notes of lime and flint add complexity. The mouthfeel is supple yet firm, with an impressive firm structure that hints at the saltiness of the schist soil. Along with the ripe fruitiness, fresh acidity beautifully supports the overall flavor, and subtle nuances of vanilla and nuts from barrel aging add to the aftertaste. An elegant and well-balanced wine with long-lasting aging potential.

Food pairing

Cod brandade, pan-fried scallops with lemon butter sauce, goat cheese and herb tart

About this bottle

Lais is the name of Olivier's Catalan Jersey cow. The cow is featured on the label as a symbol of the diversity of the Cals terroir. A vibrant floral aroma spreads across the palate, with the macabe and Grenache Blanc providing a rich yet classic impression, maintaining an exquisite balance. The Grenache Gris offers floral notes, a stimulating citrus oil, and minerality. The salty and clear minerality lead to a stimulating finish.

About the producer

Domaine Olivier Pithon

[A unique existence, enchanted by the land! A true Grand Vin du Sud]

Originally from Anjou in the Loire Valley, Olivier Pithon grew up in a family of winemakers.

He aspired to become a winemaker at the age of 14, first assisting his grandfather in his hometown of Anjou, then his already famous brother, Joe Piton, in the Coteaux du Layon in Anjou, and spent most of his teenage years working in the vineyards and cellars. At 18, he left the Loire and moved to Bordeaux to study viticulture, opening his eyes to a world of wine very different from that of his home town.

He gained some practical experience in Jurançon and Bordeaux, and further acquired his savoir et faire (artisan's skills) under the tutelage of the genius winemaker Stéphane Durnoncourt, who greatly influenced him in his knowledge of terroir, teaching him "precision, love of work, balance, lightness, and that wine should be made delicately and above all, that it should bring joy." He learned the importance of working in harmony with nature, something he had never learned at school, and the importance of reflecting the individuality of the land and grape varieties.

Olivier's desire to create his own wines was born, and he began searching for a place where he could fulfill his passion for wine and terroir. In 2000, he visited the small village of Cars, where he met Gérard Goby. The high altitude, constant winds, and complex soils of the area immediately convinced him that this was the place to produce delicate and elegant wines. Enamored by the land, Olivier purchased 8.5 hectares of vineyards with old vines. He adopted organic farming methods from the start, and received organic certification in 2002, and biodynamic certification in 2010.
