Château Barouillet
Bergerac Blanc Sec Sauvignon Blanc Blend
Bergerac, Southwest France, France
Natural Southwest French white blend for under 15$-Sauvignon Blanc, Sauvignon Gris, semillion & Chenin Blanc. I don’t like Alsatian blends but this I do: like a rich Muscadet. Floral but not heavy on the Sauvignon Blanc, balanced. Celebration of lifting of Covid restrictions in New York State, with friends on the Hudson

Bergecrac (note the extra “C” - cute, no?) Blanc is indeed snappy; per Wayward, “Sauvignon Blanc, Sauvignon Gris, Sémillon, Chenin Blanc.” A bit of RS to my palate; there a lot going on in the glass, not a typical blend but not some kitchen-sink mess, this is interesting enough to taste on its own and also good food wine. I can’t pull out Sauv Blanc notes but I can find Chenin Blanc - the gestalt is more than the sum of its parts.
