Grand Vin Sec Blanc 2023 Château Suduiraut

Bordeaux Blancs Secs - Blanc Sec de Suduiraut 2023

白桃とミント、躍動するボルドーの白。

淡いイエローに緑がかった輝きを湛えた辛口の白。アカシアの花、白桃、グリーンアニス、ミントといったフローラルでフレッシュな香りに、ミネラル感とウッディなニュアンスが重なります。口当たりはフレッシュで厚みがあり、クリーミーかつ躍動感のある味わい。樽由来のスパイスやライム、グレープフルーツの皮の風味が続き、余韻には火打石を思わせるミネラルが残ります。オマール海老のグリルや鶏肉のクリーム煮と。

Tasting note

Pale yellow color with a greenish sheen. The aroma is floral and fresh, with notes of acacia flowers, white peach, green anise, and mint, as well as mineral and woody nuances. The taste is fresh and full-bodied, with a creamy and vibrant flavor. You can sense the flavors of spice from the barrel, white-fleshed fruit, lime, and grapefruit peel. The finish is powerful and rich, with spices, fresh almonds and a minerality reminiscent of flint. This wine perfectly expresses the balance between the minerality of the terroir and the creaminess and freshness of the two grape varieties.

Food pairing

Grilled lobster, scallop carpaccio, creamy chicken
