Description
Pays d’Oc Sauvignon Blanc 2017 Fontareche
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc 100%
Stelvin cap
Pale straw yellow color, with green spots.
The nose has classic aromas of tomato leaf, celery and white flowers. Follow the yellow grapefruit and white peach. Sharp and precise perfumes identify the variety of the vine.
On the palate the hardness gives it drinkability, and the softness of volume and thickness. A slight residual sugar makes it more persuasive. From the palate aromas of white peach and citrus reach the nose. The memory it leaves is persistent.
It goes very well with asparagus dishes, both raw and cooked. Also excellent with fresh goat cheeses.

Chateau Fontareche is located in the far south of France, almost on the border with Spain. Very close to Lèzignan Corbières, almost halfway between Carcassonne and Narbonne.
Estate covers 200 hectares, all around the Chateau.
The climate is very arid, with rare rainfall. The conditions are extreme and at the same time ideal for the development of grapes, reduced in quantity but of high qualitative value.
After harvesting, it ferments in temperature-controlled stainless steel containers. In the same containers it is aged for at least 6 months.
