Chateau Peyrat Blanc 2016

Straw and green reflections with a very mineral nose. Dominated by Semillon, the wine displays toasted almonds, yellow flowers, quince and mango. Chateau Peyrat has a simple winemaking philosophy - respect the typicity of the grape varieties and work in small concrete tanks to conserve fruit and freshness to the wines.

Located in Cerons, in the heart of the Graves AOP, Chateau Peyrat is a 42 acre "clos" currently planted to 20 acres of white varieties and 18.5 acres of red. With its microclimate, due to the proximity of the Garonne River, and the sandy, clay soils on a limestone bedrock, Peyrat typifies the Graves terroir, displaying minerality, freshness and finesse. As for viticulture, the team at Chateau Peyrat promote working the soils and sowing grasses to restore the vineyards natural balance and to promote biodiversity. "Let the plant live, express itself, create a symbiosis with the elements."
