Bordeaux Superieur Blanc - 2023

This Entre-Deux-Mers white from the Fournier family is truly hard to beat for the price. Composed of 60% Sauvignon Blanc, 30% Semillon and 10% Muscadelle, this is bursting with ripe stone fruit and yellow flowers, with a tiny touch of something tropical. That said, it does not lack for freshness – there is excellent acidity and the lack of oak only enhances the feeling of energy in the wine.
