Banyuls-sur-Mer, France— Grenache Blanc & Vermentino that see three days on the skins with stems followed by time in fiberglass. Super floral, lavender nose opening up to ripe yellow nectarine, apricot, and Mediterranean herbs on the palate. Medium-bodied and fluid, fresh with a saline finish owing to Banyuls’ proximity to the Mediterranean sea.
Francesco “Kikko” Pesci is the newest member of the nine caves in Banyuls. After a few years working as Manuel di Vecchi Staraz’s (of Vinyer de la Ruca) assistant, he decided to stay in Banyuls with 2022 being his first vintage.
