  Verve French Colombard Aubin Cellars Cotes de Gascogne, 2006 #25833
Verve French Colombard Aubin Cellars Cotes de Gascogne, 2006 
Verve French Colombard comes from the “Domaine de Mirail” located in the heart of Gascony in southwest France. The specific site is in the Cotes de Gascogne region, and is an old, densely planted vineyard situated on a south-facing limestone and clay hillside. The grapes were harvested at night to allow for a brief period of cold skin maceration. Fermentation occurred in stainless steel, with the temperature stabilized to a very cool 59-62 degrees Fahrenheit in order to preserve the freshness of the wine’s apple and citrus fruit characteristics. Four months ageing on the lies adds a hint of creaminess and roundness to the wine’s texture, but does not mask the minerality and racy acidity typical of French Colombard from the Cotes de Gascogne. Served well-chilled, Verve French Colombard will prove a classic match with fish, oysters and other shellfish, salad or goat cheese.
