Bordeaux Blanc

Cork

White

The clay terroir helped retain the vines’ access to water even in the dry summer, and the slightly less sunny July weather combined with cool evenings meant perfect conditions for the whites. You don't need me to tell you this though when you taste this wine – the beautiful citrus notes buzz out of the glass and it has energy in abundance. This is made from 100% Sancerre genetics for the Sauvignon Blanc vines. No racking, aged with 60% new oak from Burgundy, with 40% a one year old. Just 29% production compared to the 2016 harvest though.
