From 19th century bear tamers, to 21st century modern wine makers, the Grassa family's history, owners of Domaine Tariquet, is full of adventure. Originally an Armagnac producing estate, much like everyone else in the area, they were pioneers in making quality wines from the indigenous grapes of Gascony such as Ugni Blanc, Gros and Petit Manseng and all the family's know-how shows in their superb value for money wines. "In the past, all that mattered was the wine making process but over the years, we have gradually learned to make wine that is an honest expression of the vineyard." Yves Grassa, winemaker. Ugni Blanc Colombard, thirst-quenching pleasure. Superbly intense for a dry fruity white, its bouquet reveals floral and citrus aromas with nice touches of tropical fruit. Light and well-balanced, this wine is a thirst-quenching pleasure.Possibility to store the BIB on a fridge shelf, and not in the fridge door, thanks to its reduced height.
