Château La Clarière Blanc 2022

Item Code: 3673822

Description

We had long wanted to make an estate white at Château La Clarière to match the magnificent estate red.

So we were delighted when we finally secured access to some nearby white vineyards with incredible fruit that has allowed us to create the prestigious La Clarière Blanc. This dazzling white Bordeaux combines bright, character-filled Sauvignon Blanc and richer, creamier Sauvignon Gris to create an extraordinarily sensuous wine. It has enjoyed all the same lavish, no-expense-spared treatment in the winery usually accorded to the red, and the result is a citrussy, complex, textured wine that is absolutely irresistible. Oak fermented, lees stirred, and then aged in partnew oak barrels, the richness and complexity is reminiscent of the grand wines of Pessac Léognan. Smooth, rich, long and lavish … it's simply magnificent – a very worthy partner to the red. It's a truly fine dining partner that really shines when served with luxury cuisine.

Low Stock Le Grand Chai Réserve Blanc 2020

Le Grand Chai Réserve Blanc 2020

Item Code: 2092520

Description

Bordeaux enjoyed another 5-Star vintage in 2020, so good that Le Chai winemaker Jean-Marc felt the intense, honeyed, citrus fruit would benefit from two years ageing in oak barrels. A superb balance of ripe peach, citrus and subtle vanilla spice.



Our Trophy-winning Bordeaux winemaker at Le Chai, Jean-Marc Sauboua, is delighted with his Réserve Blanc. 2020 was a top vintage for Bordeaux, but even then he insisted on the very highest calibre grapes – 60% Sauvignon Blanc with 40% old-vine Sémillon, fermenting the former in stainless steel to preserve the vivacious, grassy fruit, and the latter all in oak.

He’d planned just a four-month stay in barrel for this luxurious white, but in the end plumped for two years, as the fruit was so ravishing. Lees aged too, its flavours are well married now – fresh herbaceous, peach and citrus notes seamlessly integrated with the creamy vanilla from the barrels. It’s very much a food wine, best served gently chilled with sauced fish or white meats.

Château Les Moutins 2020

Item Code: 4136320

Description

For a bright, fresh Bordeaux Sauvignon, you won't beat this eight-Golds 2020 from Jean Gueridon. It's old vines with meticulous care, that give it such intensity and freshness, with a light floral touch to the citrusy fruit.



Jean Gueridon is the proud owner and winemaker of Château Les Moutins in the beautiful rolling hills of Bordeaux's Entre-Deux-Mers. Jean bought the estate in 1995 and has been upping the quality every year since. On his extensive vineyards of clay and limestone, he grows mostly Sauvignon Blanc, with a touch of Sémillon, on vines that are mostly 40 years old.

No wonder, then, the concentration in the wine is so good. It certainly bowled over judges in eight competitions, winning Gold every time. With three months ageing on its lees, the wine has lovely texture and roundness, with a creamy note to the bright citrus and grassy fruit and lift of blossom. Chilled down, it's a cracker on its own, or with seafood or goat's cheese soufflé.
