Bordeaux Blanc

Bordeaux Blanc is a white wine from the Bordeaux region of France, typically a blend of region's white grapes Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon, though Muscadelle and other varieties can also be included. If Sémillon is the primary grape, the wine's taste is richer.

Known for its crisp acidity, citrus and floral aromas, and sometimes a hint of minerality, Bordeaux Blanc is both popular and accessible. It pairs well with seafood, salads, and light poultry dishes. While overshadowed by its red counterparts, Bordeaux Blanc offers excellent value and versatility.
