The 2019 Clos Marsalette Blanc shows a riper, more tropical style while still saying fresh, lively, and crisp. Terrific pineapple, tart peach, and floral notes all define the bouquet, and it's medium-bodied, beautifully balanced, has terrific purity, and a clean, lengthy finish.

The 2019 Clos Marsalette Blanc is super-distinctive. Fresh and taut on the palate, the 2019 offers up a whole range of tropical inflections that are so appealing. A hint of lime, jasmine and mint leaves a Riesling-like note on the creamy, inviting finish. This is such an attractive white.

As with the red this has trademark glamour and a creamy texture. It works extremely well, giving a white that has lift and freshness but also depth and a round mouthfeel that makes it easy to love. Drinking Window 2021 - 2028.

The Clos Marsalette 2019 Blanc has an expressive nose of honeyed white peaches, spiced pears and fresh grapefruit with touches of paraffin wax, nutmeg and baker's yeast. Medium-bodied, the palate has a nice suggestion of creaminess to the texture, with a zippy backbone and loads of fresh, crunchy stone fruit and spiced-apple flavors on the finish.

Distinctive, featuring a very floral and expressive profile marked by honeysuckle, Meyer lemon and Persian lime notes that breeze along, with flecks of Muscat-like spiciness throughout. The finish is underscored by a minerally accent. This isn't for everyone. Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon. Drink now through 2025. 630 cases made, 60 cases imported.

Varietal: White Bordeaux

When it comes to blended white wines, few regions in the world have a reputation quite as famed or respected as that of Bordeaux. The blended white wines of this special region are most commonly made using a blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon and Muscadelle grape varietals, although there are six other varietals allowed for the inclusion in Bordeaux white wines by French law. However, the other six - Sauvignon Gris, Merlot Blanc, Ugni Blanc, Colombard, Ondenc and Mauzac – are seen less and less frequently in blended white Bordeaux wines today. The wineries of Bordeaux make the most of their warm, humid climate to ensure that the grapes are harvested when they are beautifully ripened, and have centuries of experience and expertise when it comes to coaxing out their best features, and balancing each others characteristics in the bottle.

Region: Bordeaux

There are few wine regions in the world with a reputation as glowing and well established as that of the Bordeaux, in France. Situated mainly around the Dordogne and Gironde rivers, Bordeaux makes the most of its humid climate and rich, clay and gravel based soils to grow some of the finest examples of red and white grape varietals on earth. Wineries in this region have been in operation for hundreds of years, and have carefully developed the expertise required for the production of carefully balanced and utterly delicious blended red and white wines, alongside some exceptional single variety bottles. Many of the chateaux found in Bordeaux have become household names, due to their prestige and the excellence of their products, grown with love and dedication by heritage wineries in this beautiful and special region.

Country: France

France is renowned across the globe for its quality wines and the careful expertise which goes into making them, but what is truly remarkable about this relatively small country is the vast range of wines it produces in such huge amounts each year. Not only are the finest red wines in the world said to come from the beautiful regions of Bordeaux and Burgundy, but elsewhere in the country we find the Champagne region, and areas such as the Rhone Valley and the Loire, whose white wines consistently receive awards and accolades by the plenty. This range is a result of the great variety of climatic conditions and terrain found in France, coupled with generations of wine makers working within single appellations. Their knowledge of specific terroirs and grape varieties has, over time, perfected the production of wines within their region, and the end results continue to impress the world to this day.
