"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."
"Dry-farmed Chenin Blanc thrives in the Mediterranean climate, deep soils and bush-vine vineyards of the region. Only free-run juice is used (no pressing of the grapes), to preserve its clean and natural character, refreshing acidity and delicious ripe fruit flavours. It's bursting with flavour, and is a mouth-watering Chenin Blanc with intense tropical fruit flavours offset by a vibrant acidity."
"Yellow with greenish tints on appearance, it displays an intense aromas, elegant and fruity. On the palate it's dry and well-structured."
