From the structured and classic Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant wines of the Médoc to the plush, Merlot-based superstars of Pomerol and Saint-Emilion via the sumptuous reds and whites of the Graves, the nectar of Sauternes and the affordability of the côtes and Entre-deux-Mers, Bordeaux has it all.
Classic white Bordeaux blends are pale gold in color, perhaps with flashes golden-green, and are characterized by aromas of citrus, grass and hay. Sweet examples, such as those made in Bordeaux's Sauternes, Cerons, Cadillac and Loupiac districts, show a range of honeyed lemon, orange marmalade, dried apricot and even preserved tropical flavors with (depending on age) secondary notes of sweet nuts and treacle.
Tasting note: "Mainly Sauvignon Blanc, this is a ripe, herbal wine. Green fruits, acidity touched by more tropical flavors give the wine freshness and ripeness at the same time. Drink from 2023 Roger Voss"
