RVF
Kaya blanc is a cuvée dominated by Grenache blanc and gris with a little Carignan blanc and gris. A nose of finesse, with notes of white fruit and hazelnut, supported by a beautiful minerality. The attack is frank and salivating, enhanced by aromas of fresh almond. A rich, well-balanced white!

Rated wine (guide 2023) 92/100 (Vintage 2021)
Domaine rated (guide 2023) 1*Star (Stars in the making or quality winemakers with a good level of production, you won't be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)
About the domain :
Domaine des Soulanes was created in 2002 by Cathy and Daniel Laffite, in the Maury area. The couple had previously worked these same terroirs for over ten years, alongside the previous owner, before acquiring part of the property. The vineyards lie at the foot of the rocky peaks dominated by Château de Queribus. The estate's wines express themselves in a fleshy yet fair, energetic and intense style.
