Chateau La Gabarre, Sauvignon Blanc 2024 Bordeaux, France

The estate's vineyards have been in the Gabard family since the 1800s and are now being exploited by Stéphane and Paola Gabard, a delightful couple who took charge of the château in 1999. Château La Gabarre operates as a true family enterprise. Located in the commune of Galgon within the greater Fronsac district of Bordeaux, very near Lalande de Pomerol, this Right Bank estate consistently crafts superb whites from Bordeaux's two most important white grapes.

Tasting Notes

It never fails to delight the eye with its brilliant sun-splashed color or entice the nose with a sensuous bouquet of citrus, freshly cut melon, and mango, all infused with a delightful touch of Sauvignon Blanc herbaceousness. The wine's sensual appeal continues in the mouth where a mélange of suffused fruit and minerals flow gracefully across the tongue. Add the gentle roundness and refined texture from Semillon, and this classic Bordeaux Blanc delights from start to finish. Fresh and inviting, with notes of honeydew melon, grapefruit and peach. Good mineral and a light, bracing style.
