The Story
Sauvignon Blanc, Sauvignon Gris, Sémillon, Chenin Blanc from Bergerac, South West France.
Zesty • fresh • rounded • complex.
This Bergerac Blanc is a brilliant everyday white, combining the aromatic lift of Sauvignon Blanc, the texture of Sauvignon Gris, and the essential freshness provided by the Chenin Blanc. It's a generous, well-balanced blend offering notes of fresh peach, bright citrus, and a subtle, satisfying roundness on the finish. Fermented using natural yeasts and aged in stainless steel, this wine is unfined and unfiltered, presenting a lovely complexity that far outweighs its modest price point.
Château Barouillet is a family business with a deep connection to the land, tracing its history back over eight generations in the Bergerac region. Winemaker Vincent Alexis works alongside his father and grandfather, having successfully transitioned the entire 45-hectare estate to organic viticulture—a change Vincent championed. The family's philosophy is centred on respect for the raw materials, limiting additives to the bare minimum and employing low-intervention techniques to allow the natural yeasts and terroir to express themselves. They adapt their work each year to the specific climate and vine conditions, honouring tradition while pushing a biodynamic approach
