Description Winemaker Jean-Marc Sauboua has won Trophies and Golds galore for his Bordeaux whites and this 2020 shows him on top form. For the Le Grand Chai range of wines he uses his enviable network of contacts to source top batches of wine from superior properties that need a home. He has discovered a top pick with this rich, complex white. The first sip reveals hallmark verve and zest with added sophistication, body and a lingering hint of toastiness - not from oak, but from its two years of age. 2020 was an exceptional vintage, so the fruit quality is a delight – great ripeness and intensity, with the acidity to allow a white wine like this to age well. Grassy, herbaceous, gooseberry and citrus aroma with a hint of honey. A real modern classic – serve lightly chilled with asparagus or with fine seafood.
