The wine is a composed from a majority of Sauvignon Blanc which adds freshness and zesty, citrus fruit. The remainder of the blend is made up of Sauvignon Gris and Sémillon that provides florality and textural breadth. The vinification and maturation occurs exclusively in inert vessels to retain the vibrancy of fruit without seeking to impart oak spice to deliver a quaffable, refreshing white wine.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
The Olivier Cailleux Château Haut-La Péreyre Entre-deux-Mers-Haut-Benauge displays a pale, straw color in the glass with green reflections suggesting a youthful wine.On the nose, this wine offers a bouquet of vibrant aromas of citrus fruits, such as lemon and grapefruit, mingle with hints of tropical fruits, like green pineapple and guava. There is also a subtle herbal undertone, adding a touch of freshness to the profile. The palate is well-balanced with a lean texture and refreshing acidity. The citrus flavors continue to shine, accompanied by a pleasant minerality that adds depth and intrigue on the modest finish.
