The latest vintage of Château La Grande Métairie is marked by great freshness. Its blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Sauvignon Gris and Muscadelle, aged on lees, delivers intense aromas of citrus fruit and white flowers. It will take a few weeks of patience for the zesty tension and fat to harmonize. A lovely white for seafood!
