Grenache Blanc is Languedoc's freshest white grape with naturally low alcohol, floral aromas and crisp mineral acidity.
Grenache Blanc is a mutation of the red Grenache and shares its ability to thrive in heat and drought. The grape gives full-bodied white wines with relatively low acidity but great texture and body — a style that suits the natural wine producers' skin contact and oxidative methods particularly well.
In Languedoc, Grenache Blanc is often grown alongside Roussanne, Marsanne and Clairette in classic southern French white blends. Kairos from Haute Vallée de l'Orb combines it with Grenache Gris, Clairette, Viognier and Vermentino for a complex altitude wine. Rocalhas and Douce Brise show the grape's fuller, more textured side. Premices blends in old local grapes like Terret and Maccabeu.
All Grenache Blanc wines at PACT come from producers working organically or biodynamically, without additives and without filtration.
Grenache Blanc is a gastronomic white with enough body for substantial food. Pairs with oily fish, shellfish in cream sauce, chicken, Mediterranean vegetables and soft cheeses. Serve at 10–12°C — not too cold, or you lose the grape's texture.
