Production
Grapes are harvested early to preserve freshness and undergo 15 hours of cool skin maceration before fermentation. A cool, temperature-controlled ferment enhances aromatics and fruit purity. The wine rests on its lees for two months, adding depth and complexity before bottling.
Vineyard
Sourced from vineyards in Gascony, where a mix of sunny days and cool Atlantic breezes helps retain vibrant acidity and aromatic intensity. Clay-limestone soils contribute texture and minerality, while the region’s long growing season allows for slow, balanced ripening.
Pairing
A versatile aperitif-style white that’s excellent with prawn cocktail, grilled shellfish, or fresh summer salads. Its bright acidity and tropical fruit profile also make it a refreshing companion to light Asian dishes and citrus-led starters.
