"... A gorgeous bouquet of vanilla, almond, crème brûlée and lemon curd that displayed far better delineation and freshness than it showed previously. The palate is well balanced with far better acidity than it has any right to be, given the merciless heat that season. While it does not exude the mineralité or tension of a very top Domaine de Chevalier Blanc, this is so sumptuous and sensual that you end up with a big grin plastered upon your face."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
The world's largest fine-wine region, built around blends of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Divided by the Gironde estuary into the structured Left Bank and the plush, Merlot-led Right Bank, it is the historic benchmark for age-worthy claret and sweet Sauternes.
In the Graves, the only Bordeaux appellation renowned for both reds and dry whites. Gravelly soils yield smoky, mineral reds and age-worthy Sauvignon-Semillon blends.
