Made from highly aromatic Colombard and Sauvignon Blanc, Le Citronnier bursts with grassy citrusy aromas and dances across the palate with the juicy tang of gooseberries, grapefruit and ripe lemons. Can you imagine a wine more evocative of summer?

Jamie Goode said it best in the Sunday Express: Gascony is “a brilliant source of inexpensive, fresh, bright, fruity wines. If you like New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, this is an alternative with the same sort of flavour profile, but for much less money”. Le Citronnier combines Gascony’s star white grape, Colombard, for its crisp green apple fruit, with Sauvignon Blanc (star of Bordeaux and New Zealand of course) for ripe, tropical notes and a brilliant citrusy edge. It’s so lemony fresh we had to call it Le Citronnier. Priced for everyday drinking, this evocative white is ideal for summer evenings and lazy garden afternoons. Keep it in the fridge for any sign of sunshine or enjoy with fresh salads, a spicy stir-fry or grilled fish.

"Bright and refreshing. This cries out for a sunny day, or even a crisp early autumn night" 5-Star Online Review
