Why You'll Love It
A generous, beautifully textured white Bordeaux with plenty of freshness. Grapefruit, apricot and orange zest meet well-judged oak and a creamy middle, while the mineral finish keeps everything in balance. Excellent with roast poultry, scallops or richer seafood dishes.
About The Producer
Château Lamothe-Bouscaut is part of the Bouscaut estate in Pessac-Léognan, south of Bordeaux. The vineyards near the Garonne grow on clay, limestone and gravel soils, and are managed with ground cover and minimal spraying. Its white wine combines Sauvignon Blanc's citrus freshness with Sémillon's generosity and texture.
