Quite simply stunning value for money, a Sauvignon/Semillon blend aged in french oak and delivering, in 2016, a sleek, brightly fruited, subtly toasty cracker. Aromas of pink grapefruit, nettle, smoky rich oak that flows on to the palate, nice richness, ripe acid with enough complexity to maintain interest and offer a good partnership for lobster, trout or salmon. Drinking range: 2017 - 2019 L&S (Sept 2017)

Château Beaumont Les Pierrières

In 2006 M. Filliatreau, the owner of Château Beaumont Les Pierrières was desperate to get a slightly better price for this wine from the old vine Semillon-Sauvignon produced from a 2 ha plot attached to a property that mainly makes red. He hit on the idea of barrel-fermenting it in the new barrels destined for the red wine. Since it is picked early (in August) it completed its fermentation in wood and was back in tank by the time of the 'décuvage' of the red. Because the barrels were needed for the red, their cost has not been factored in to the price of this fantastic bright and surprisingly complex white, which is amazing value for a barrel-fermented wine.
