Flores – Côtes de Thau Bleu Blanc Thau

Located on the edge of the Bassin de Thau near the city of Sètes, Florès regroups 70 artisan vigneron families under the supervision of Stephane Roques. Viticulture at Florès is organic. The Florensac terroir is one of the oldest planted vineyards near the Mediterranean. The landscape is dominated by the former volcano of Agde (an outlier of the volcanos of the Massif Central) and Mont St-Clair near Sète. The mixed terrain of garrigue, sand, sea and lagoons is home to a wide array of plant and animal life. A series of vineyard planted low terraces are open to the twin influences of the Mediterranean sea and the Étang de Thau. The latter is the largest in a series of sea-edge lagoons along the coast.

Blend of 50% piquepoul, 50% terret. Harvest at night. Vinified and aged on the lees in tanks for 6 months.

Crisp, light, zesty and mineral, it is an absolute delight and perfect wine for summer sipping with light appetizers, seafood, cheese, etc... It is full of juicy citrus fruit and lovely light pear aromas. Crowd pleaser all the way!
