With lovely, summery notes of elderflower, pink grapefruit and orange blossom, this is a very appealing Gascony white. Sauvignon Blanc makes it reassuringly recognisable, while the authentic south-west French varieties, Colombard and Gros Manseng provide a distinctive sense of place, as well as rounding out the texture of the wine. In all, fresh and vibrant while satisfyingly complete and balanced.

Winemaking
A blend of the very best parcels of Sauvignon Blanc (40%), Colombard (40%) and dry Gros Manseng (20%) vineyards. Each variety is vinified separately. After pressing, the juices are refrigerated to 4 degrees for around 3 weeks with regular stirring to increase the aroma intensity. After this the juices are racked and fermented at 13 degrees. The gross lees (which are very rich in aromatic componds) are then pressed, filtered and blended back into the final wine. The blend is assembled and the wine is aged on its fine lees for 4 months with regular stirring to maximise intensity, complexity and texture.
Our Expert Food Recommendation
This works really well with white meats, roasted vegetables, salads and grilled fish.
