Michel Duffour and his family craft one of the great white wine values in the world. Produced from old, organically-farmed vines and fermented with native yeasts in stainless steel, this blend of Colombard, Gros Manseng, and Ugni Blanc is France's answer to New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc.
It pairs well with spicy Asian cuisine, but it's also an ideal aperitif. Even better, it comes from a hard-working, family-run estate.
2023 Domaine Duffour Cotes de Gascogne Blanc -- Here's why you should buy it:
- The Duffour family are one of the most respected producers in Gascogne. They farm organically, ferment with native yeasts, and work with old vines.
- Michel Duffour works with vines his father planted back in the 1960's. These old vines provide this wine with its intense aromatic and flavor personality.
- In addition to making wine, Domaine Duffour is also revered for their Armagnac(s), which is made from Ugni Blanc and Colombard. Unfortunately, we can't sell it due to state laws...
- It offers incredible value for money. Flowing with concentrated notes of melon, grapefruit, passion fruit, lime, and green herb, it's a bit weightier than most Sauvignon Blancs, but it's still super clean and zesty. YUM!
