Domaine de Joy - L'envie 2024
Domaine de Joÿ is a historic property in Gascony, located in Panjas, in the heart of the Côtes de Gascogne, and today managed by the Gessler family. The estate extends over clay-limestone and sandy-silty hills typical of the region, benefiting from a temperate oceanic climate that promotes the aromatic freshness of white wines. Renowned for the consistency and precision of its cuvées, Domaine de Joÿ has established itself as a quality reference for the appellation. The cuvée L'Envie is conceived as a dry white wine of pleasure, highlighting the gourmandise and liveliness typical of Gascon grape varieties. It perfectly embodies the convivial and accessible spirit of the Côtes de Gascogne. The 2024 vintage fits into this quest for freshness and drinkability.
L'Envie 2024 stands out with a clear and expressive aromatic profile, dominated by notes of fresh citrus, grapefruit, lemon, and crisp white fruits. It is an exceptional cuvée from the estate. Upon aeration, subtle floral nuances and a slightly exotic touch appear, adding gourmandise. The palate is lively, supple, and balanced, supported by a refreshing acidity that structures the whole without harshness. The texture is fluid, with a sensation of lightness and immediate frankness. The aging is deliberately discreet to preserve the fruit's brightness and the wine's natural freshness. Overall, it offers a precise, easy-to-access, and very pleasant dry white wine to taste.
The 2024 vintage confirms L'Envie's positioning as a lovely dry white wine cuvée, ideal for immediate pleasure.
