The vines at Château d'ESCABES are all classified in the GAILLAC Appellation. They are planted in a single block on different slopes surrounding the Château. The location of this vineyard, at the crossroads of the Mediterranean and Oceanic influences, between the Autan wind and the West wind, on Boulbènes soils (silt-clay-limestone) gives a remarkable freshness to the wines produced.
No pesticides or insecticides are used throughout the vine-growing cycle, and no herbicides are used when working the soil. This ethical choice has earned us the Agriculture Biologique (AB) label in 2021
100% Muscadelle. This is a grape variety that thrives in the south-west of France. It is generally vinified as a sweet wine and rarely on its own. We wanted to present it to you in its natural state, with a floral, round flavour that shows off all its finesse. This is our mojo L’Art d'Etre Libre – The Art of Being Free
The grapes are harvested at the crack of dawn, followed by a direct cold press at 10° and low pressure. Clarification is carried out 12 hours later in stainless steel vats, with fermentation at a controlled temperature of 15°C. Batonage on fine lees gives the wine its delicate expression.
Pretty white with green highlights. The aromas are complex, a real bouquet of flowers with notes of acacia and honeysuckle. Well- balanced on the palate with a lovely roundness and a fresh finish. Best served between 10°-11°, as an aperitif, with salmon tartare, sea bass or seafood plancha. Blue-veined cheeses
