Lauroux Blanc Sec 2007
Vin de Pays des Côtes de Gascogne Blanc 2007 12% abv.
At Domaine de Lauroux, our ethos of minimal chemical intervention coupled with biodynamically-approved treatments and traditional growing methods produces clean, fresh, well-balanced wines. Filtration is carried out using bentonite and diatomeous earth - a form of clay; rather than chemicals.
Fermentation uses naturally-occurring yeasts, supplemented only when absolutely necessary. During fermentation our wines are closely monitored and analysed twice-daily. Sulphites, used to prevent the wines from oxidising, are kept to a minimum by frequent testing and levels are only adjusted if essential. Our wines are made without using animal by-products, making them suitable for vegans and vegetarians.
Characteristic of Gascony's white wines, our Blanc Sec 2006 combines traditional grape varietals Colombard, Ugni Blanc and Gros Manseng.
This clean, fresh wine is pale gold in colour; sprightly, clean and packed full with delicious citrus fruits and ripe pineapple.
Served well chilled, Lauroux Blanc Sec is particularly suited to fish or white meat, salads or light pasta dishes. The zesty lemon and cut grass notes offer a perfect accompaniment to spicy and aromatic dishes.
