Tutiac - Origines Font Renard, Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux Blanc 2021 12.5% 750ML
LOCATION AND LANDSCAPE / This 100% Sauvignon blanc
takes its name from the lieu-dit Font Renard, near the
plots at the origin of this cuvée, where there was a
fountain decorated with a fox head. These plots have
been chosen for their clay-limestone terroir with a
great South Est exposure.
GRAPE VARIETY / Sauvignon blanc
WINE MAKING / This wine is made by direct pressing,
fermented in French oak barrels, and aged on its lees
with regular bâtonnage (lees stirring) for eight months.
TASTING NOTES / It has a beautiful pale colour with silver
highlights. The complex, subtle bouquet displays hints
of citrus and exotic fruits. On the palate it is very
lively and rich with just the right amount of acidity and
complemented by the toasty nuances due to barrel
ageing. Beautiful long aftertaste.
A wine to enjoy over the next three to five years.
