L'Abeuradou Les Terrasses

WINEMAKING The vineyards of L’Abeuradou Les Terrasses are situated on some of the most exceptional soils of the Minervois  in the Languedoc : either on the higher altitudes on calcareous soils or on the lower gravel terraces. Both benefit from the cooler northernly winds. The grapes were picked early in the morning then gently pressed and fermented cool temperatures and 60% was aged in French oak barrels afterwards for 10 months. TASTING NOTES This is an unusually perfumed example of white wine from the Languedoc region, with a creamy texture, appley, limey fruit and a lovely hint of floral perfume. The oak is subtly in the background. FOOD STYLE Freshly enjoyable by itself, this is perfect seafood wine but has enough character to match light red meat dishes.
