The Gittons are champions of Sauvignon Blanc planted on silex (shale) soils. The family crafts powerful wines made from ripe grapes aged in older barrels that age beautifully.
Their Les Belles Dames bottling, their largest parcel, is planted in pure silex. These tough, hard-to-plow soils yield wines with intensity, concentration, and wonderful mineral expression. Aged for 12 months in 600 liter neutral barrels, it is exotic, full-bodied, and absolutely delicious.
Full-bodied, with rounded acidity and full ripeness, this exudes exhuberant notes of tropical citrus, pear skin, kiwi, lime, and crushed rock. About as full and complex as Sauvignon Blanc gets!
