Pacherenc du Vic Bilh sec|White wine

3.6/5 (10 customers)

The Torus dry white wine is made from a selection of vines less than 15 years old, grown on the finest terroirs of Montus and Bouscassé, boasting a pedigree of the highest quality. A wine of great freshness, with citrus notes (lemon, orange...), and a lovely liveliness. An immediate delight!

Rated Estate (2023 Guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking, and as such, all the estates listed here—even those without a star—represent, in our view, the pinnacle of French winemaking.)

About the estate:

Alain Brumont has forged his own identity through a style that has sent wines from Madiran around the world under the Château Montus label, which he acquired in 1980. Often defying conventional wisdom, Brumont’s wines reflect his great freedom in interpreting terroirs with yellow and red clay subsoils, which vary in composition from 20 to 40 percent. Tannat is featured in the château’s three cuvées—Prestige, XL, Montus, and La Tyre—and undoubtedly delivers the most spectacular profile of this Pyrenean grape, which is not easy to work with.
