Gayda's quest for taste continues through this new blend of Muscat and with Macabeu for even more structure and richness whilst keeping its pure freshness. Plenty of ripe stone fruit character alongside touches of lemon and white grapefruit.
A blend of 70% Muscat and 30% Macabeu matured in steel and amphora.
This limited edition range is designed as an ode to Domaine Gayda's spirit of creativity and inventiveness. Inspired by The Passenger, the classic pop-rock anthem by Iggy Pop, its inherently restless character is expressed through a red and a white wine that are made from a different vineyard and terroir each year, underscoring its ephemeral nature.
"Full bottle 1,142 g. Certified Ecocert organic. 70% Muscat, 30% Macabeu.
Mouth-wateringly bright on the palate. A little bit of pineapple (slightly on the tart side), white passion fruit, a wash of broad and tingling acidity, sweet grapefruit and green sage and a tiny bit of saltiness that takes me to the sea. This is the epitome of freshness. It's a celebration. It's an energy tonic. And it's just 12.5%. It's magic. Good Value.
16.5 points."
