Lower ABV We could go on and on about the traditions of this Swiss family living in Gascogny since the 1920s, the unique growing conditions, and how the fruit here is related to (or just used as) Cognac grapes. But why? This is just stupid delicious white wine that happens to be a blend of Colombard, Ugni Blanc, Gros Manseng and Sauvignon Blanc. It's explosively scented and flavored, really bursting with tangerine, green apple and zesty lime fruit wrapped in a double handful of yellow flowers and fresh, savory, herb.
So much body and texture here - a bit Riesling-like in feel - with a crisp, decisive, bite on the juicy, mouthwatering finish. Just 11.5% alcohol, so you won't feel bad about your second (or third) glass. An afternoon chiller extraordinaire and pretty stunning with cheeses and salads anytime. Really, seriously, good stuff from importer Mary Taylor.
For You If: You enjoy the snap of Sauvignon Blanc with a bit less grapefruit and a snappy bite of fresh herb; you're in the mood for something full of citrusy refreshment and flavor in a light, easy-drinking, frame.
Not For You If: You're looking for the extravagant tropical fruit of Kiwi Sauvignon or a lot of bite - this is gently refreshing on the finish.
