Notes: Robert Parker 91/100, RVF 15.5/20
"This is what we have come to expect from owner Yves Vatelot. The 2005 Reignac white is superb, displaying aromas of honeysuckle and lemon, buttery notes with a touch of smoky oak..." (Robert Parker). Both the white and red Grand Vin de Reignac wines meet the highest standards of wine lovers, blending the expressions of Sauvignon, Sémillon, and Muscadelle. A beautiful bottle to discover!

About the estate:
Yves and Stéphanie Vatelot celebrated 30 years at the helm of Reignac this year. From the outset, the couple has invested heavily in positioning their Bordeaux wines at the highest level, following the advice of Michel Roland. With the arrival of director Nicolas Lesaint in 2009, cultivation methods have evolved to become more organic. This work is beginning to show in the wines, despite a still intrusive aging process. Extractions are more precise thanks to six small truncated cone vats that allow for parcel-by-parcel processing.
