Details and technical informations about Domaine de Gensac's Terre à Terre Blanc.
Discover the grape variety: Petit Courbu
Aromatic, structured whites with a golden robe, ample palate and preserved acidity, showing refined aromas of yellow fruits (pear, peach), candied citrus, white flowers, honey and limestone mineral notes. Adds roundness and richness to Béarn blends. Precious component of Jurançon AOC (dry and sweet), Pacherenc du Vic-Bilh AOC and Béarn AOC, complementing petit and gros manseng. Very rare autochthonous Béarn variety, making a comeback for its aromatic finesse.

The wine region of Comté Tolosan
IGP covering all of southwest France across 12 departments, a broad and accessible palette. On the Garonne right bank, supple reds dominate: signature Merlot with signature notes of plum, ripe cherry, cocoa and a herbaceous touch, round tannins. Firm Cabernet, spicy Syrah, tannic local Tannat. Left bank for whites: vivid Colombard and Gros Manseng (citrus, grapefruit, exotic fruits), aromatic Sauvignon.
The word of the wine: Tastevin
Metal cup, wide and of low height, being used to mirror and taste the wine. Still used in wine brotherhoods for its emblematic and folkloric character, the tastevin has been replaced by the various tasting glasses.
