A French white wine blend from the southern Gascogne region produced by the Laffitte brothers. Vines are planted on the highest hills of Ayzieu, also nicknamed “Little Tuscany” for its hilly, varied landscape. The tawny sands and terrebouc (clay-limestone) soils bring minerality, freshness and power to whites, whilst the special climate and oceanic-mountainous influence creates exceptional ripening potential and full flavour for reds.
Crisp Sauvignon Blanc is combined with the soft spice and off-dry notes of Gros Manseng for a rich nose revealing exotic fruits, boxwood and toasted hazelnut notes. The fruity, round and fresh palate. An excellently balanced and easy drinking wine that is exceedingly quaffable. Try with green or chicken salads, mussels or grilled white fish.
Domaine Laffitte is run by brothers Christophe and Sebastien. Passionate about vines and wine, they have worked to bring a vineyard, capable of expressing all the richness and complexity of the terroir. Their wines reflect their ethos: straightforward, authentic and generous.
