Château La Grande Métairie - Entre-deux-Mers blanc 2018
Bordeaux
White
Sold individually
Drink or Keep
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!

Very lemony notes on the palate. A very, very pleasant wine, light but with character.
