About This Wine


Le Coq Gaulois

Bordeaux Blanc

Our Le Coq Gaulois Bordeaux Blanc is a delightful fusion of tropical fruit notes, lively acidity and refreshing minerality, creating a versatile and food-friendly wine. The Gironde River, which divides the historic Bordeaux region, creates the unique growing conditions that nurture the grapes in our blend. Our Bordeaux Blanc is crafted in the classic style of the region's white wines, showcasing the complementary characteristics of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon. Sauvignon Blanc brings cheerful aromas and natural acidity, while the Sémillon adds smooth textures and fullness, resulting in a beautifully balanced wine. Enjoy a chilled glass as an aperitif or pair it with a variety of dishes, from fresh seafood and salads to goat cheese and seasonal fruits. Share a bottle with friends and experience a delicious example of a French classic. Scroll through the image carousel above to learn more about this wine.

Wine Region


Bordeaux

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.
