LAUBADE FLOC DE GASCOGNE WHITE

Floc de Gascogne is made by blending fresh grape juice with young Armagnac: the eau-de-vie stops fermentation and preserves all the natural sugar in the must. This expression bears the signature of Laubade, at the heart of Bas-Armagnac. Tasting notes describe a pale straw colour with golden highlights, a nose of honey, quince and white fruits such as peach, then a fresh and lively palate of honey, peach and candied grape. 75 cl bottle, 17% vol., to be opened well chilled alongside melon, foie gras or simply among friends.
