Comment

Since 1912, the Grassa family has taken care of Domaine Tariquet located in Gascony in the South West of France. In order to protect the life of the soil and optimize the quality of the grapes, the vines have benefited from sustainable viticulture since the beginning of the 1990s. The philosophy of the Grassa family is to preserve, during vinification, the freshness and the aromatic potential of each grape variety harvested on the property's vines. The estate has been HVE certified since 2016.

Tasting

The mixture of two identities, like a successful crossbreeding. With opposite characters, Chardonnay and Sauvignon blend into multiple and surprising flavors in a unique and original blend. Floral notes mixed with spices evolving towards citrus fruits; The sensation of pink grapefruit, on the flesh side, is omnipresent... The mineral character of the Sauvignon is wisely supported by the roundness of the Chardonnay. The attack on the palate invades and caresses with a background of elegant freshness... Serve chilled. Enjoy before or during meals, accompany Asian dishes, spicy or exotic cuisine...
