Domaine Madeloc 'Tremadoc Blanc' Collioure is an exceptional white wine crafted on dramatic, schist-laden slopes that overlook the Mediterranean Sea in the French Roussillon region. With a blend primarily of Grenache Gris, complemented by Vermentino and Roussanne, this wine is the result of meticulous vineyard practices and passionate winemaking by the Gaillard family. The vineyard benefits from the unique terroir of sloping terraces, cooling sea breezes, and shale-rich soils, imparting a distinctive saline freshness and minerality to the wine. Hand-harvested grapes are vinified with precision, aged in barrels for eight months to develop a luscious texture without overt oak influence, allowing the fruit characteristics and elegance to shine through. Vegan and crafted with a sustainable ethos, 'Tremadoc Blanc' offers a clear expression of Collioure's coastal terroir in every glass.
