Food Matching Note:
An excellent partner for light starters, vegetable based soups and medium to light flavoured fish and shellfish in particular. Perfect for accompanying a light lunch or drinking on its own.
Tasting Note:
A classic blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon and a hint of Muscadelle. Aromatic on the nose with hints of gooseberries, citrus and flint that are echoed on the medium to light bodied, crisp, dry palate. A fine example of this much overlooked style.
Grape:
A harmonious blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon and Muscadelle.
Location:
From the Entre-Deux-Mers region of Bordeaux which lies between the rivers Dordogne and Garonne.
Flavour:
Very aromatic with exotic fruit tones and elegance. Freshness lingers on the palate for an astonishing length of time.
USP:
Véronique Barthe, who took over the family estate in 1992, is the first female heir in the family since the French Revolution.
Combined:
This harmonious blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon and Muscadelle from the Entre-Deux-Mers region, has exotic fruit tones and astonishing length.
Vinification Note:
The grapes are picked at full maturity and undergo a traditional vinification with destemming of the harvest. Pneumatic pressing in a vacuum ensures that they are pressed slowly and gently. The temperature is maintained at around 19° during fermentation. The wine is then aged and bottled at the château before release.
