 ust the perfect blend of equal parts Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon, this fresh but substantial white Bordeaux is a cut above the rest, thanks to the specific plot on which its grapes are grown, the careful manner in which they're cultivated and harvested, and the meticulous winemaking techniques.
|
|
The Sauvignon Blanc brings familiar aromas, flavors and crispness, while the Semillon, a key component of the great white Bordeaux of Sauternes and Barsac, gives this wine a great deal of substance and age-worthiness. The grapes are harvested by hand, with an extended skin-contact maceration to extract more flavor and provide a fuller body. It's then fermented at low temperatures for three weeks before being matured on its lees for three months.

It has a light yellow color with floral aromas and hints of citrus and green apple. Sauvignon dominates on the nose. It's rich on the palate with a wonderfully balanced acidity, and a clean and lively finish. Enjoy paired with oysters, shellfish, chicken or salads.
