An immensely enjoyable and fresh white wine.
Production
Maison de Vigneron is created from a blend of Colombard and Ugni Blanc sourced from Vin de Pays des Côtes de Gascogne. Vines are trained using the Guyot system and harvested quickly by machine when the desired level of ripeness is reached. On delivery to the cellar the grapes are kept cool and macerated for 5-15 hours. Once alcoholic fermentation is completed, the wine is held on its lees to retain maximum freshness.

Tasting notes
Made from quality grapes selected from the Pays des Côtes de Gascogne, this is a deliciously fresh wine with a very aromatic nose; zesty citrus and hints of stone fruit. The palate has lots of ripe nectarine and pink grapefuit, balanced with a refreshing lime acidity.
Food match
Ideal as an apéritif, or with tempura fish or vegetables.

Meet the producer
Like all good stories, that of Boutinot France is both long and a little bit complicated! Boutinot began as a tiny importer in 1980, specialising in French wines. Paul Boutinot himself began by personally selecting the wines from France, back in the UK he would unload the trailer by hand. And deliver the crates of wines to customers himself. But good things grow and by the end of the decade we had become a bigger and better company. A company that not only sought out great wines but made them too. After 10 years later, Boutinot France started in January 1990. The first office was in the middle of the vines in Julienas; perfectly located to navigate the Beaujolais and Macon regions on the quest to make beautiful wines.
