Château Jean Faux St. Emilion Sainte Radegonde 2018 Bordeaux Blanc Organic , 0,75 L

The Jean Faux winery has become a coveted destination in the realm of "new Bordeaux", celebrated for its biodynamic wines that are making waves in the industry.

Their white wines, like this one, defy expectations associated with Bordeaux. It's truly top-class—there's little more to add. While red Bordeaux is often familiar, Jean Faux's white wines are genuinely captivating. The 2018 vintage is just entering its prime drinking window, yet it promises many years of ageing potential.

In the glass, it shines a light, pale yellow, offering a complex and balanced bouquet on the nose with hints of gooseberry, light fruits, and beautifully integrated oak. To fully appreciate its nuances, allow it to breathe and serve it slightly above refrigerator temperature. On the palate, it unfolds with creamy complexity, exhibiting a round, full-bodied texture complemented by well-balanced acidity. Notes of cassis and gooseberries contribute to its Burgundian-like profile, lingering with a nutty aftertaste that persists gracefully.

If Bordeaux white wines are experiencing a resurgence in popularity, this wine unequivocally deserves to be at the forefront.
