The Domaine de Guillaman is a wine estate that lies in Gascony on hillsides and has been in the Ferret family for six generations. A passion for the grape has long run in the family. Albert Ferret, the fourth-generation owner, passed on his own devotion to his grand-son Dominique, who was equally passionate and was also proud to be able to maintain the fine family history, took over the management of the property from a very young age, and decided to change direction in choosing to make high-quality white wines. These are marketed as Côtes de Gascogne, which now have a protected geographical status.
The grape varieties are predominantly white, in part as they were ones used for making armagnac: Colombard, Ugni Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, Gros Manseng and Petit Manseng make up 80% of the vines. The remaining 20%, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, are used to make rosé and red wines.
This Colombard, Sauvignon Blanc blend has notes of grapefruit, lychee, passion fruit and a hint of acacia. The palate is well-rounded and very fresh with a really, long finish.
It is wonderful just on its or can be enjoyed with shellfish.
