Domaine Chiroulet - Les Terres Blanches 2018
87/100
Gilbert & Gaillard
A pale color with bright highlights. A nose of white fruit flesh, citrus, pineapple, and wildflowers. A palate that develops a delicious tart freshness. Its fruity flesh is a delight. The archetype of a very refreshing wine for immediate enjoyment.

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2020 guide) 1*Star (A serious, recommendable production, in line with what one would expect from its appellation(s))
About the estate:
Philippe Fezas has been pampering his vines since 1995, when he took the plunge and added winemaker to his role as consultant for Seguin-Moreau. Committed to producing expressive wines, distributed to wine merchants and fine restaurants, he focuses on his vineyard plots, going against the grain of production in the surrounding area. His two hillsides face the Pyrenees and feature a variety of soils ranging from fine clay (the Côte d'Heux) to more calcareous soils (white soils).
Guide Hachette des vins
Rated estate (2022 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer's wines are regularly recognized by the guide)
About the estate:
Heir to four generations of winegrowers established here since 1893, Philippe Fezas contemplates the small 13th-century church built in the nearby hamlet of Heux from his 50-hectare estate. The rows of vines are swept by the chiroula, a beneficial wind that dries the grapes, which will produce flocs, Armagnacs, and Côtes de Gascogne wines of high quality. A sure bet.

About wine:
Pale color with straw highlights. Expressive nose of pear and peach framed by a hint of acacia. Beautiful ripe and fresh texture, delicious fruit, and a smooth, invigorating finish. A sensual wine offering immediate pleasure. Perfect for a cocktail party.
