Discover the grape variety: Blanc Dame
Simple, lively dry whites with a pale golden colour, supple palate and preserved acidity, showing understated aromas of white flowers, citrus (lemon) and herbaceous notes. Rustically productive profile, historically destined for distillation. Now marginal, surviving in a few heritage plots and contributing to traditional eau-de-vie blends. Native French white variety from the south-west, formerly grown in Armagnac and Charente.

The word of the wine: Oenologist
Specialist in wine-making techniques. It is a profession and not a passion: one can be an oenophile without being an oenologist (and the opposite too!). Formerly attached to the Faculty of Pharmacy, oenology studies have become independent and have their own university course. Learning to make wine requires a good chemical background but also, increasingly, a good knowledge of the plant. Some oenologists work in laboratories (analysis). Others, the consulting oenologists, work directly in the properties.
