About this product


This delicious dry white wine has an excellent acid balance allowing it to age gracefully.  So .... drink now and enjoy! 

If you would like a change from chardonnay or sav blanc then try this great wine from Jurançon in the foothills of the French Pyrenees (think The Way/The Camino de Santiago/pilgrim route).   The Manseng grape is indigenous to the Jurançon and is growing in popularity as it is a great match with rich buttery or creamy sauces and seafood.  For example it is a great match with creamy pasta and fish sauces. Andrea Frost (Melbourne Review) summed it up beautifully La Pierre Blanche is a lovely wine with a complex nose of honey, wet stone, chalk and stonefruit continuing on the palate. Excellent acidity gives the wine pace and race all the way down.

Some bottle variation may occur - hence the exceptionally low price for this wine!
