2022 Chateau de la Grave Grains Fins Bordeaux Blanc

From: Bordeaux, FranceBlend: 60% Semillon, 40% Colombard Taste: A gorgeous, rich, textural, and interesting Bordeaux Blanc. Aptly named "Fine Grained" by the winery (Grains Fin in French), this unusual but delicious blend of 60% Semillon and 40% Colombard is fermented and aged in oak barriques for six months. The aromas of the wine are fine and subtle, leading to a harmonious blend of lemony citrus, exotic fruits, and white acacia flowers. Elegant oaky notes with subtle spice add dimension, depth, and complexity, giving way to a long, full palate with a touch of freshness.Pairing: This richly textured white Bordeaux pairs wonderfully well alongside dishes that have an equally generous nature. Pork Ragù al Maialino (see recipe below), a pork pie with smoky bacon, roasted pork with apple, gourmet tacos al pastor, lobster with butter served with pasta, risotto, or roasted potatoes, crab cakes with aioli, roasted chicken or veal, and savory dishes with mushrooms, herbs, and spices.
