The hasn’t even landed in the US yet, but I imagine it won;t last long after the recent press. Mr. Dubourdieu is considered the master of white wine in Bordeaux, and is credited with bringing the Burgundy style to Bordeaux to produce amazing white wines. Unfortunately Bordeaux white wines are often overshadowed by the incredible red wine being produced, but there are fantastic white wines available as well. Be sure to look into them- they won’t disappoint!!

 

CHATEAU REYNON BLANC

Bordeaux, France

Wine Enthusiast Magazine

July 2009

 

“This is a finely made wine, bringing out

really concentrated herbaceous flavors, almost

New Zealand in their intensity. It is fresh, green,

Grassy, ready to drink now.” -Editors Choice

Here are the tasting notes;

Chateau Doisy-Daene – Barsac, 2006 vintage 90 POINTS

“There’s lemon meringue on the nose, with candied lemon and apple crumble. Full-bodied, with medium sweetness and a ripe fruit aftertaste. This is spicy on the finish. Needs time. Better than from barrel. Best after 2012.

Wine & Spirits Magazine, December 2008

90 points

A brisk, cherry-scented Rioja, this has its share of American oak and Spanish Leather, but the main impression from the structure is firm and mineral. It tastes briny and flinty, reminding one taster of the glint off of sea glass. For grilled fish
