In the heart of South West France, in a beautifully preserved region, the appellation of Saint Mont stretches out to the foothills of the Pyrenees. Benedictine monks grew vines here in the 11th century as can be seen today from the Monastery which dominates the village of Saint Mont. Fascinating Gascon grapes make for a complex array of fresh, fruity, floral and herby characters in this appealing dry white. Made by the ultra reliable team at the Plaimont winery, who have an admirable focus on polishing the finer characters of the region's local grapes in this case, Arrufiac, Petit Courbu and Manseng, bringing intriguing styles to a wide audience.
