2005 Bordeaux Sauvignon Blanc

The 2005 vintage showcases a pale yellow hue, enticing the eye and hinting at its vibrant character. The wine greets the palate with a refreshing burst of citrus fruits, particularly zesty lemon and crisp green apple, complemented by subtle notes of freshly cut grass and delicate herbs. Its bright acidity lends a lively mouthfeel, making it an invigorating choice for warm-weather sipping or pairing with light seafood dishes. The finish is clean and inviting, leaving a lingering impression of fruit-forward elegance. This Sauvignon Blanc represents a stellar example of Bordeaux's ability to produce sophisticated white wines that captivate the senses.

Probably the world's most famous wine region, Bordeaux is a true powerhouse of French quality. While Bordeaux is home to some of the country's most expensive bottles, it is also possible to find great-value wines from small producers. Almost all red and white wines from Bordeaux are blends. Reds tend to be a mix of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. But just as important as the blends are the quality of the region's terroir and unique winemaking techniques. The Bordeaux region is divided by the Gironde River into two main parts. Cabernet Sauvignon reigns supreme on the Left Bank, while Merlot dominates the Right Bank. White wines are usually a blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon.
