Comment

The Hauts De Montrouge wine cellar is located in Nogaro in the Gers. Created in 1963, it today brings together more than 60 peasant winegrowers who perpetuate the best wine-growing tradition on more than 900 hectares of vineyard. Made famous by D’Artagnan, the Gascon country offers sandy terrain to the vines of the Nogaro hills. This inimitable terroir gives Côtes de Gascogne grapes a strong and recognizable personality among lovers of South-West wines and spirits. Winegrowers cultivate noble and traditional grape varieties such as Sauvignon blanc, Chardonnay, Colombard, Gros Manseng, Le Petit Manseng Merlot, Tannât and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Tasting

Pale yellow color with green highlights. On the nose, intense notes of grapefruit and lemon. The palate is lively, lemony, with notes of citrus, nectarine and white peach.
