“Pale in colour and tinged with green glints. Highly expressive on the nose, fresh and pure, releasing a hint of citrus fruit interweaved with floral notes. Taut, lively and very well-balanced on the palate, developing appealing breadth thanks to a touch of Semillon. The bracingly fresh and harmonious finish attests to the great elegance of the mineral character of sauvignon blanc on limestone, typical of Château La Garde white wine.”

Tasting Note

Pale yellow and enhanced with flashes of green
Complex and long on the bouquet, melding abundant freshness with citrus fruit aromas and mineral, chalky character
Clean on the attack, the wine gains in body and depth, underpinned on the mid-palate by lovely balance enhancing the flavours, and culminating in a long finish, replete with aromas characteristic of chalky soils.
