Chateau Lafitte Orange Douce 2021

Nestled at the foothills of the Pyrenees and recognised for its varied landscape and unique microclimates, the Sud-Ouest is one of France's oldest wine-growing regions. Yet it has taken a back seat compared to many other more renowned areas.

Since the late 1980s however, some producers have revitalised local grape varieties, resulting in exceptionally delightful and profound wines.

Leading this resurgence and a new generation of winemakers, Antoine Arraou is a former photographer who has taken the reins from his father Philippe since 2012. While deeply connected to the Jurançon terroir, Antoine embraces both tradition and innovation, crafting wines that transcend appellation boundaries.

Antoine has steered the estate toward organic and biodynamic practices (Demeter certified) while implementing natural winemaking techniques.

Spanning 5ha, the vineyards are planted with local grape varieties, namely Petit Manseng and Gros Manseng. Beyond grape cultivation, the family tends to fruit trees and cereals, all in accordance to the very same biodynamic principles applied to viticulture. This approach emphasises overall balance and biodiversity.

These are incredibly enchanting wines which radiate tranquility and vibrancy, shining amidst a sea of unremarkable offerings that surround them.
