Domaine Gourt de Mautens blanc 2014
17/20
Bettane & Desseauve
“Just before it was served, it delighted us with its subtle aromatic complexity, its deep minerality, and above all, its noble bitterness. A great white wine, a must-try from both its terroir and its region. Vegetables with truffles, Guy Jullien-style, will be its perfect pairing.” (The Bettane & Desseauve Guide to French Wines 2017)

About the wine:
Just before being served, it delighted us with its subtle aromatic complexity, its deep minerality, and, above all, its noble bitterness. A great white wine, a must-try that embodies both its terroir and its region. Vegetables with truffles à la Guy Jullien will be its perfect pairing.
About the estate:
When speaking with Jérôme Bressy—a scholar and a captivating conversationalist—one is delighted to hear about his deep knowledge of the traditional techniques of yesteryear, those time-honored practices that gave rise to the great wines of Vaucluse. Attuned to his terroir and the ampelographic diversity of his vineyard, he is a rare artisan in the wine-growing world. He stands out through his Vaucluse IGP wines, which truly reflect the terroir of Rasteau and are faithful expressions of old grape varieties treated with respect and care. In the cellar, patience and experience work in tandem with time to craft some of the most accomplished wines of the southern Rhône Valley. With each vintage, he raises the bar to achieve tangible perfection. Once again, he has proven this this year.
