This lovely white wine combines the best of what I consider to be less than appealing grapes. You get Colombard, Ugni Blanc, Gros Manseng and Sauvignon Blanc in this Gascogne blend. It shows à beautiful golden tint and smells of citrus, most notably grapefruit. There's also some wet rock minerality along for the ride and a soapy savory note. The palate gives a broader citrus flavor and, again, plenty of minerals. Acidity is fresh, but not too fresh. The finish fades fairly fast, but it's great while it lasts.
