Château Le Coin Sauvignon Gris 2023

A Gold-winning must-try rarity. Delicious creamy roundness with real freshness give this Bordeaux white a perfect balance. It’s a collaboration between our award-winning winemaker Jean-Marc Sauboua and owner of Château Le Coin Ludovic Roussillon. The key ingredient is Sauvignon – Gris that is, not Blanc – which combines spicy richness and lime freshness. All the grapes are tended at Ludovic’s superb estate in the Entre-Deux-Mers, just over the river from Bordeaux’s grand Saint-Emilion estates. His claret is always a hit and nine years ago we persuaded him to make us a white too. The limestone soils help to produce lovely fruit intensity, while old-vine grapes and a tiny portion of oak fermentation lends a touch of richness. Great on its own or with a creamy gratin.
