GALOPE SAUVIGNON BLANC

A historical Armagnac terroir, the Côtes de Gascogne vineyard extends over 20 ,000 hectares in the south of the Landes at the bottom of the Pyrenees . Its sunny slopes , cool nights and clayey -silt soils naturally make it the best white soil in the South of France . The grapes , harvested at night, are protected by organic yeasts instead of sulphates in order to avoid the development of undesirable micro - organisms . The grapes are then placed in an Inertys nitrogen press to prevent any oxidation . After cold stalling and settling , the juices ferment slowly in vats controlled in temperature at 16 ° C .
