Domaine Monplezy, Felicite Blanc
A delicate and expressive Languedoc white wine crafted from 60% Marsanne and 40% Roussanne, grown in the gravelly soils of Pézenas.
Domaine Monplézy use manual harvesting, precise winemaking, and gentle oak integration to produce a fresh, elegant, and layered wine. Golden and brilliant in the glass, with an open and delicate nose of linden flower, fennel, and subtle floral notes. The palate is soft and fresh, with a bright, saline finish that gives structure and vibrancy. Gentle oak influence and bâtonnage on lees add depth and texture without overpowering the purity of the fruit. Ideal for refined lunches, seafood dishes, or relaxed summer evenings.
Top food pairings:
- Monkfish bourride with a light saffron sauce
- Grilled sea bass with lemon and herbs
- Vegetable tian or Provençal vegetable dishes
