Why You'll Love It
We love the zesty, refreshing whites of Côtes de Gascogne for their simply delicious drinkability. But this one is a cut above the rest and more than worth paying an extra few pounds for. Still deliciously crisp and fresh, but with a big old mouthful of pineapple, papaya and melon fruit flavours. There is more weight here than in classic CdG, making the transition from your afterwork aperitif to dinner seamless. This wine can do both, especially if you're whipping up a quick goats cheese tart with a zesty dressed salad on the side.
About The Producer
Chateau Laballe is a family-owned winery established in 1820 and located in the heartland of gastronomic Gascony, between Bordeaux and the Pyrenees. Jean Dominique Laudet, a former spice merchant in the French Antilles, returned to his homeland and begin producing Armagnac. Production continued until 1970 when Noël Laudet, former steward of Château Beychevelle decided to diversify and begin the production of dry white wines. In 2007, eighth generation Cyril Laudet took over from his grandfather.

Together with his wife Julie they have breathed new life into the winery by expanding its wine production - now in biodynamic conversion - and re-introducing small batch Armagnac production.
Winemaking Information
The fruit is harvested during the cool of the morning from Château Laballe's vineyards in Gascony before being gently pressed and fermented at low temperatures in stainless steel tanks. The wine then spends around three months ageing on its fine lees, adding a little extra texture while preserving its wonderfully bright aromatics and crisp acidity. The result is a lively, expressive white that captures the freshness the region is famous for.
