Château Brane-Cantenac Bordeaux Blanc Brane Cantenac Blanc 2020
Plenty of personality, touches of juicy white pear and grapefruit, with honeysuckle and saffron adding an edge of bitterness through the finish. Good quality, from clay-dominant plot just next to Brane Cantenac in AOC Haut Medoc (bottled as the rules require as AOC Bordeaux Blanc). Aged in large sized 500l oak casks and barrels, 30% new oak, with lees stirring. The barrels are washed with water first to take out the dominant taste of new oak, Diam cork closure.
