Carrelet Confidence Sauvignon Blanc 2022, Bordeaux

Description

There's more to Bordeaux than claret – and this crisp white is a case in point. It's made by Tutiac, France's largest appellation-focused winery, which has risen to become a cornerstone of Bordeaux winemaking since its founding in 1974. The team crafts this Sauvignon with grapes from low-yielding vines, so the flavours are particularly concentrated. And it's kept deliberately unoaked to let its zesty, fruity character take centre stage. Expect notes of citrus, elderflower and stone fruits, plus a subtle minerality that'll pair perfectly with goat's cheese or white fish.
