Product Notes

Château Tour des Gendres La Vigne d’Albert is an illustrious organic wine from the Bergerac region in France. Made predominantly from Muscadelle grapes, it’s known for a delicate, floral bouquet, redolent of white flowers and peach, enchanting the nose whilst the palate is left refreshed by its invigorating acidity. It exhibits notes of citrus and apricot, culminating in a long, beautiful finish. This is a crisp and lively wine, making it the perfect companion for summer dining; pairs perfectly with light dishes, seafood, or enjoyed simply as an aperitif. This wine is a testament to the skill and care of the De Conti family's vine cultivation.

Tasting Notes

The 2018 vintage boasts a deep grenat-colour with a bright purple touch. It lets off intense aromas of very fresh & ripe fruit, with a soft floral note too. The mouth is full, deeper than the previous vintage, with a delicately light sweetness and a lovely freshness. A real fruity wine!
