Suitable for the finest fish dishes, for shellfish and especially for lobster. The exceptional fruitiness of the wine pairs well with grilled and smoked fish. This wine is a natural choice for bouillabaisse. Even for thicker sauces, like butter and cream sauces and white meats, birds and goat cheese.

Domaine du Vieux Lazaret Blanc is a potpourri of white grapes from the Rhône Valley. The grapes are pressed pneumatically, cold stabilised with the help of gravity, and after fermentation the wine is allowed to mature on the lees (sur lie),which increases diversity and reduces oxidation. Wine made from Roussanne grapes is made in oak,where it is allowed to mature before final blending. The wine is matured for about ten months in steel tanks or oak casks,and bottled on the estate.

Producer story

The history of the Quiot family, a French winemaking legacy, is intertwined with the history of the Rhône Valley. Antoine Quiot acquired his first hectares of vineyard in Vaucluse, specifically in the Châteauneuf-du-Pape area, as early as 1748. Presently, the family owns five wine estates comprising several hundred hectares of vineyards scattered across the southern Rhône Valley. Following the unexpected passing of Jérôme Quiot in 2018, the estates are managed by Florence and Jean-Baptiste Quiot. The family's primary estate has always been the Domaine du Vieux Lazaret, situated right in the heart of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Domaine Duclaux, Combes d'Arnevels, Domaine Houchart, and Château du Trignon complement the holdings of this esteemed wine family, where history and expertise converge, providing wine enthusiasts with an essential part of the Rhône Valley's gastronomic world.
