Gros Manseng - Sauvignon Sec
Côtes de Gascogne
Alain Brumont has always been passionate about Gascony; for him it represents an exceptional reserve of micro-terroirs; here it produces a convivial, very expressive, fruity, fresh "vin de pays". The combination of the Gros Manseng's structure and freshness with the Sauvignon's aromas and fruitiness results in a cuvée with a unique style. Typical of Gascony, this is a well-balanced wine that can be enjoyed immediately.
