Maison Wessman - Château les Tours des Verdots Blanc 2024

Tours des Verdots Sec 2024

An elegant and beautifully expressive dry white from Vignoble des Verdots, blending Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon and Sauvignon Gris from clay soils over lightly fractured Issigeac limestone. Gently pressed and aged on fine lees, with part of the wine spending 10 months in barrel, it combines ripe white-fleshed fruit with bright citrus and delicate floral notes. Nectarine, mandarin, kumquat and yellow peach lead into subtle lemon and sweet almond, while fresh acidity keeps the palate precise and wonderfully balanced. Fragrant, polished and lingering, with a refined texture and impressive aromatic finesse.
