Les Cailloux, Bordeaux Blanc (2018)

Bordeaux, France
Les Cailloux, 'the stones' in English, are present in many top Bordeaux vineyards. Carried along by the Garonne River, these stones favor a better drainage and force the vines deep into the soil to find their nutrients. Forced to search for resources, the plant will regulate fruit production resulting in berries with concentration of fruit and aromas; an essential requirement to produce refined and full bodied Bordeaux wines.

Les Cailloux Blanc is the pure expression of Sauvignon Blanc grown on the greatest terroirs of Bordeaux where the most legendary growths are located. Aged in traditional French barrels, the bouquet is rich with citrus fruit, well ripened white peach and wild flower aromas, with an elegant hint of brioche and lemon curd. This unique white Bordeaux will pair perfectly with goat cheese, seafood and roasted chicken. 100% Sauvignon Blanc.
