Description
What kind of wine it is
Chateau Mezain Bordeaux Sauvignon Blanc is a dry white wine that precisely expresses the character of the Bordeaux region. This blend combines the qualities of Sauvignon Blanc with those of Sémillon, resulting in a fresh and elegant profile. In the glass, it reveals a bouquet dominated by aromas of citrus and green apple, accompanied by hints of peach, white flowers and delicate vegetal notes. On the palate, it offers a light texture and pronounced acidity, balanced by a slight bitter nuance that is well integrated and leads to a clean, harmonious finish.
Where it comes from
The grapes for this wine come from the renowned vineyards of Bordeaux, with a territorial reference to the Entre-Deux-Mers area. The Chateau Mezain estate cultivates its vines on alluvial soils rich in gravel, clay and silt. This geological composition plays a decisive role in giving the wine its typical citrus expression and a distinct minerality. The vineyard management follows the principles of sustainable agriculture, respecting the environment and encouraging the harvest of bunches that result in an extremely smooth-drinking wine.
How it is produced
The winemaking process begins with careful handling of the grapes, followed by the fermentation of the must in stainless steel. This stage takes place at a controlled temperature, an essential choice to preserve the fragrant varietal aromas. Afterwards, the wine undergoes a period of maturation for several months, a step that promotes the development of flavour harmony and the complete stability of the sensory profile. The result of this care is a white wine with a vibrant character, distinguished by a clean acidity and immediate appeal.
