La Sorga, Calmos 2022 Mixed case All extreme positivesPlace: Languedoc, France Grape: Colombard + Marsanne + Muscat dAlexandrie + Sauvignon Blanc Vibe: Advanced The King of mental blends is back! And wackier than ever, but we're into it. The Colombard is direct pressed then blended with the others which see about a month's maceration, before the whole lot ferments in stoneware jars and ages away on the lees. The result is bright, zippy and salty, and like all things La Sorga, very much alive. ABV: 10. 5%
