Chateau Pilet Bordeaux Blanc

For over 100 years, the Queyrens family has preserved and passed on its know-how and its passion for wine from generation to generation. They own several Château in Bordeaux, such as Château du Pin-Franc, and Château des Graves du Tich in Sainte Croix du Mont. They purchased Château Pilet in 1965. The estate covers 65 hectares in the town of Donzac in the ‘Entre Deux Mers’ region, on hillsides overlooking the right bank of the river Garonne.

Their White Bordeaux is splendid this vintage, and it combines the fresh and citrus quality of Sauvignon Blanc with the fleshy and waxy character of Semillon. It could easily pass as a White Graves, but it costs a fraction of the price.
