Ch. Philippe Jacques Co. 2020 Bordeaux Blanc Bordeaux AOP, France

Description

This exceptional wine is part of our Fine Wine Collection.

Winemaking Our grape’s journey from the vine to the winery is swift and cool. This emphasis on timeliness and temperature is crucial to preserving Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon’s natural freshness and flavor. Throughout the winemaking process, our winemakers sample different blend proportions to identify the perfect varietal balance of 60 percent Sauvignon Blanc and 40 percent Sémillon. The final wine embodies the quintessential harmony and elegance of this classic style.

Vintage The white wines of Bordeaux’s 2020 vintage are recognized for freshness and balance. Following a wet spring, the growing season was filled with dry, hot days and scattered thunderstorms. September offered mild temperatures during harvest as we collected the year’s bounty in time to avoid the October heat. This symmetry of sun and rain created excellent conditions for our Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon grapes to develop their outgoing fruit flavors and crisp textures.
