Description
Château Baret WHITE 2021 from Pessac-Léognan. New vintage.
Pessac-Léognan is Bordeaux’s most prestigious area for dry white wines and directly adjoins the city of Bordeaux itself.
100% Sauvignon Blanc, full barrel ferment.
Off-the-chart! Exquisite and exotic barrel ferment character, lifted, pure, and intense, with notes of struck match, reduction, smoke, flint, tropicality, guava, lychee, leather, lemon myrtle, and oak hints, while the palate is crystal clean with zinging acidity, serious tanginess, mouth coating and long. Grand Cru quality and proof that 2021 was a truly wonderful vintage for Bordeaux whites that will live and develop for a decade or more in the cellar. If you like Sancerre or whites from Burgundy then I think you will LOVE this wine. Do not miss out!
