MILLET FLOC DE GASCOGNE WHITE
- Ageing Floc de Gascogne AOP, mistelle of grape must and estate armagnac
- Grape varieties 50% colombard, 50% gros manseng
- Awards Coup de coeur, Guide Hachette des Vins 2026
Floc de Gascogne is born from the union of fresh grape juice and armagnac: in Gascon, lou floc means a bunch of flowers. Francis Dèche is one of the pioneers of this appellation, recognised in 1990. The estate's white version blends colombard and gros manseng in equal parts and comes in at 16.5% vol. It offers honey, citrus and gentle floral notes, with a fresh, crisp palate. Served between 6 and 8°C, it pairs with foie gras, melon, fruit-based desserts or blue-veined cheese, and lends itself beautifully to a Floc Fizz. 75 cl bottle.
