Trafalgar is an orange wine made from 100% Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains grown in La Palme, on the Aude coast within the Fitou AOC. The grapes are fermented with three weeks of skin contact, then bottled unfined, unfiltered, and with no added sulfur. The result is classified as Vin de France, since the extended maceration falls outside the appellation rules for white wine.
The vineyards sit on two distinct soil types: rolled pebbles near the Étang de La Palme lagoon, and clay-limestone on the Mediterranean coastline. The plots are among La Palme and Leucate, just above sea level, exposed to persistent coastal winds that reduce disease pressure and help maintain natural acidity. Yields average 16–20 hl/ha.
Three weeks of skin contact transforms the grape's intense floral character into something deeper and more textured. Clementine, pineapple, and clove are the dominant notes. The tannin from the skins is light but present, giving structure without grip. At 11% ABV, the wine stays lifted and food-friendly.
