The Domaine de la Pointe is a vineyard located in Capbreton, Landes. It is situated on a unique terroir of shifting sands and dunes, which gives it very special characteristics. The first vines were planted in Capbreton in the 12th century. The vineyard reached its peak in the 16th century, producing over 10,000 hectolitres a year. But in the 18th century, the vineyard began to decline, due to competition from Bordeaux wines and the phylloxera crisis.

Les Pieds dans le sable blanc is a wine with a clear, brilliant color; the nose is rich, fresh and aromatic (exotic and white-fleshed fruits), the palate lively and straightforward. Notes of citrus and exotic fruit are present. It leaves us with a saline finish with lovely tension.
