Domaine de Menard
Domaine de Menard is located in the small village of Gondrin, Cotes de Gascogne in the south of France. The area has calcareous soils which contribute to the mineral, aromatic styles of the wines.
The Cuvvee Marine name is derived from the marine fossils found in the soil in this area which imparts a minerality to the wine. The cuvee marine is the flagship wine of the estate and to make this wine, three grapes typical of the region of Gascony are blended; they are Colombard, Sauvignon Blanc and Gros Manseng. The resulting wine is of top quality with a wonderful complexity. It is crisp, zesty and fresh with aromas and flavours of ripe stone fruit and citrus such as grapefruit, lychee and pineapple. It is totally drinkable on its own but will pair with light meats such as veal or chicken, seafood, particularly seabass, prawns and other freshly barbecued fish.
