Domaine Galuval Le Coq Volant Blanc is a delightfully fresh and delicate white wine from the Côtes du Rhône region.

The emblem of the Domaine de Galuval, the Rooster, spins around as the weathervane is battered by the wind. The Mistral and the benefit it brings are what help these vineyards to prosper, ventilating the vines, keeping the grapes healthy and chasing away the clouds to allow them to reach perfect maturity.

The Coq Volant White takes its inspiration from this wind and offers a fresh soaring profile as a tribute. A quartet of local grapes, white Grenache, Viognier, Roussanne and Clairette have given birth to this wine.

Winemakers use a machine to pick the grapes at dawn. Upon arrival at the winery the grapes go into a vibrating hopper to preserve the integrity of the berries. The juice is cold settled at 12ºC to retain only the fine lees, and then seeded with selected yeasts. Fermentation takes place in thermo-regulated stainless steel vats at 14-18ºC.

Enjoy Domaine Galuval Le Coq Volant Blanc as an aperitif or with light fresh cuisine such as roast scallops with a sprinkling of orange zest, a cheese souffle or a poached egg with asparagus.

Producer’s Tasting Note

Golden yellow with greenish highlights. A complex nose of white flowers, honeysuckle and lime blossom. In the mouth it is elegant and diaphanous, with lovely smoothness of the first palate bright fruit and persistent freshness. Then, a smooth finish. A delicacy of expression that is rare for the region.
