Matassa 'Coume de l'Olla Blanc' 2023 Roussillon, France
Place: Roussillon, France
Grapes: Muscat Blanc a Petit Grain and Macabeu
Story: South African Tom Lubbe of Matassa needs little introduction, other than being a strong figurehead of the French Natural Wine scene for the past two decades, and what’s impressive about his bottlings is just how much there is such a wide range to his styles.
Olla Blanc is a skin-contact smasher for summer consisting of Muscat Blanc a Petit Grain and Macabeu (usually found in Spain, but Matassa winemaker Tom Lubbe is really on the border down in Rouissilon). Here, whole grapes have been left to macerate for 10 to 12 days on the skins giving it some extra vibrancy, and the wine is then matured in concrete tanks. It is bottled unfiltered and without the addition of sulphites. Very low alcohol at just 10% alcohol.
