Deep in the Corbières appellation, in the heart of the esteemed sub-zone of Boutenac, the Laboucarié family of Domaine de Fontsainte has earned a following for their light, crisp rosé of direct-press Grenache Gris.
Gris de Gris is refreshening, cooling, bone dry, and ideal with everything from spicy shellfish to sausages. Its color is like fresh raw salmon. Its aroma has a delicate, fennel-like freshness. Light in alcohol, delicately-flavored, yet the wine is not weak or thin. It stirs up the appetite.
This is an exquisitely crafted little gem that delivers a fragrant burst of juicy citrus, strawberries, and orange blossom before a delicate, finely etched mineral finish cleanses and stimulates the palate.
