Jonathan Sack represents the fourth generation here, and while the domaine is best known for the traditional white blends of Cassis (one of our all time favorites), \u003c\/span\u003eBaume Noire\u003cspan\u003e shows a more experimental side of the estate: a tiny parcel devoted entirely to Vermentino.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe vines were planted in 2013–14 on limestone terraces, using plant material selected from Corsica. After a short cold maceration, the 2022 fermented naturally in sandstone amphorae and remained there on its fine lees until bottling. It sees no malolactic fermentation, helping retain the variety’s natural brightness.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis is Vermentino with a distinctly Mediterranean personality: citrus and pear alongside wild herbs, delicate florals and a subtle salty edge. There’s texture here, but also plenty of energy, with the limestone soils and amphora élevage giving the wine a clean, stony feel through the finish. A brilliant seafood bottle; oysters would be hard to beat, but grilled fish, crudo or a plate of garlicky prawns would be equally at home.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Martignetti - Carolina","offers":[{"title":"750ml","offer_id":50635590238433,"sku":null,"price":53.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0676\/3210\/3649\/files\/Clos-st-Magdelaine-Beaume-Wine-Store-Provincetown.jpg?v=1790792234","url":"https:\/\/ptownperrys.com\/products\/clos-sainte-magdelaine-vermentino-baume-noire","provider":"Perry's Provincetown","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
