Hailed as one of the world's greatest expressions of Sauvignon Blanc, this Grand Cru comes from Pascal Cotat’s oldest vines, which are 60 years and older. With just over two-acres of vineyards that are steeply sloped, faces north, and has clay-rich soils; Sauvignon Blanc here delivers lush, supple flavours with a bracing vein of citrus-inspired acidity.

A crisp, textural and beautifully expressive white wine that grows in almost every wine growing country across the world. In the hands of a great winemaker, Sauvignon Blanc can rival the very best white wines of the world with its complex aromas and flavours that you won't find in other white varieties. The expressions from Sancerre and Bordeaux set the benchmark the world over, using oak as a medium for body and spice, and in great Sauvignon Blanc you'll find notes of white florals, gentle herbals, creme fraiche, cassis, melon, complex citrus, pear, gooseberry, vanilla, cashew and hints of passionfruit.
