Domaine de la Barbinière - Les Gorinières - White

Presentation of the Domaine de la Barbinière - Les Gorinières - White

Discover the Les Gorinières vintage from Domaine de la Barbinière. This white wine from the Loire is made from a blend of Chenin Blanc and Chardonnay. Typically from Vendée, it is a complex, powerful and generous wine. On the nose, we discover notes of citrus zest, exotic fruits and honey. On the palate, we appreciate a mineral, well-balanced wine. The fruit aromas and acidity are well balanced in a mouth rich in flavors. A nice surprise! This complex wine, suitable for aging, will perfectly accompany your fish, white meats as well as your goat or cooked cheeses.

HISTORY OF THE DOMAIN

Philippe Orion created Domaine La Barbinière in 1978 on his father's 2 hectares of existing vines. In 2005, his sons took over the estate and set about gaining recognition for their expertise. In 2011, Chantonnay was finally recognised as the new AOC Fiefs Vendéens. The winegrowers have been cultivating the vines organically since 2015. They offer us elegant and fresh wines. These organic wines will be perfect for all your convivial moments.
