Château de Tariquet Classic (75cl, 10.5%)

A dry white wine from Côtes de Gascogne, France, bottled at 10.5% ABV in a 750ml bottle. Produced by the Grassa family at Domaine Tariquet, it blends Gros Manseng, Ugni Blanc, Colombard and additional varieties. Grapes undergo thermoregulated pneumatic pressing before cold fermentation, halted at 4°C within four to six hours. The wine is stored at 0°C in stainless steel tanks and bottled under nitrogen. The nose shows bright citrus peel, white flowers, crisp green apple and a subtle vegetal note. The palate is taut and zesty with lemon, green plum, ripe pear, pineapple and honeyed Gros Manseng. The finish is clean and brisk, with apple-skin minerality and a citrus echo.
