Capitoul - Ode

Located in the heart of the largest classified natural site in Languedoc, Château Capitoul takes advantage of its unique location and stands as an exclamation point at the end of the peninsula. Ôde is a tribute to its Mediterranean terroir and the French department of Aude where Capitoul is located. Clay-limestone vineyard, home to pine groves, moorland and garrigue, is strongly influenced by sea breezes, thus producing very fresh wines. The grapes are harvested in the coolest hours of the night then go direct-to-press in an oxygen-free environment to ensure the full integrity of its aromas is preserved. The blend promotes aromatic complexity in the wines, mingling fresh, fruity notes with spicy scents. Ageing on fine lees after alcoholic fermentation bolsters volume on the palate.
