Description
In a nutshell:
Crisp and lively from the south of France, this white bursts with zesty citrus flavours and a delightfully refreshing tang.
The lowdown:
Smells like fresh peaches, a crisp apple, and a hint of that salty sea air. This quirky white from the Languedoc uses a grape you usually find in northwest Portugal and Spain. Turns out, it loves the Languedoc's limestone and marl soils - they were onto something planting it. Harvested under the night stars for freshness, it's got that classic crispness you'd expect. But there's also a lovely roundness to it - no sharp edges here. Overall, it's got a bit of weight and character, kind of like a decent Albariño from Rías Baixas.
The Producer:
Famille Fabre exemplify the Languedoc's rich winemaking heritage, with a history spanning four centuries of dedicated viticulture. Louis Fabre skillfully guides the family enterprise, comprised of five distinct estates, while his daughters and niece ensure its continued success in exports, operations, and oenotourism. Their commitment to organic practices since 1991 speaks to a deep-seated respect for the land. This translates into concentrated, expressive wines that clearly showcase the unique characteristics of their terroir. For authentic and well-crafted Languedoc wines, Famille Fabre delivers a compelling experience.
When to drink:
This crisp, gently aromatic white loves a plate of prawns or simply grilled white fish.
Suitable for Vegans, Organic
