CDT GERSCôtes de Gascogne wines are mainly white wines, but there are also red and rosé wines. Among the white grape varieties, the most emblematic are Colombard, Ugni Blanc, Gros Manseng and Sauvignon. These grape varieties give rise to fresh and fruity wines, often marked by notes of citrus, exotic fruits and white flowers.
Red wines, although less known, also deserve attention. They are made from grape varieties such as Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Tannat, offering generous and balanced wines, with aromas of red fruits and spices.
