Château de la Jaubertie Sauvignon Blanc 2023

 

Juicy fresh dry bergerac with fine yellow fruit in the nose and light citrus tones. The taste is aromatic and has a long, fresh and balanced aftertaste.

 

 

Fresh sauvignon grapes, supplemented with ripe, mild sémillon (15%), form the basis of this refined tasting Bergerac. The grapes are harvested at night, so that they can be processed cool. After picking, the skins are briefly macerated, which yields maximum fruit nuances.

For more complexity in the blend, winemaker Hugh Ryman ferments about 20% of the wine in used oak barrels. The wine then remains in contact with the yeast cells for almost four months and is minimally filtered. The result is top-notch: refined, fragrant and juicy and ideal as a non-dominant accompaniment to fine dishes.

A stark contrast to often large-scale wines, which, due to technical interventions in the wine cellar, expressively smell of sweets and boxwood. A permanent fixture in our range for years.
