2016 Le Perlé Gaillac – Esprit de Labastide





Another of our treats from The Wine Society – 2016 Le Perle, Esprit de Labastide, Gaillac. Very refreshing, crisp, lemony apéro – a blend of Loin de l'œil (local variety), Mauzac (SW France variety) and Sauvignon Blanc from the well established Cave Co-operative de Labastide. Dangerous easy to drink – although @ 12% relatively low in alcohol.
