2019 Château Lafitte 'Orange' Petit Manseng (16.9 oz)

Antoine is the man in charge at Chateau Lafitte and has taken the estate in a decidedly natural direction, including Demeter certification for all 5 hectares.

The holdings are all Petit Manseng and Gros Manseng on clay and limestone. A new winery was built in 2018 with an emphasis on self sufficiency (solar, gravity, rainwater) along with some new tools, like amphoras, and experimental approaches such as macerated whites like this special cuvee.

This wine has alot of tannic structure with flavors of burnt orange & macerated peaches. Great to sip on its own or with cheeses & dessert. 

This wine is dry, it is not a sweet wine, don't let the package fool you.
