Bordeaux, France.  ‘ An entry - level white Bordeaux that’s sealed with a screw cap, this is a 70/15/15 blend of sauvignon blanc, semillon and muscadelle – Bordeaux’s three white grapes. Immediately appealing, its floral citrus blossom, green melon, honeysuckle and tropical fruit aromas are followed up by herbal, grassy characters that add a touch of complexity.
