Grains Fins Côtes de Bourg Sémillon Colombard
2020 vintage. An usual blend (Sémillon / Colombard) in the rare white Côtes de Bourg category. Shy nose. Simple, clean but not very exciting. Rather expensive at 12 euros.

Jun 9th, 2014Lots of vanilla and passion fruit aroma. On the pallet it pops with acidity and crispness, nice minerality and citrus characters. Really unique wine

Mar 3rd, 2021Nose of lemon and some spice. This is discreet and fresh. The palate is very well designed with a strong acid drive, a good tension, a nice width and some weight on the sides,a good grip, almost a chalky mouthfeel. A very long finish with refreshing citrus note and the same spices. This is great! More of that!

Aug 21st, 2020Oaky with quite a tannic body. Paired beautifully with a strong Dorset cheddar. Rich in body with cherry tones.

Oct 21st, 2019Intense and slightly floral nose; lots of oak/vanilla with mulberry and tobacco.
slightly one dimensional on the palate though- good tannin but slightly lacking acidity and structure and fruit doesn’t follow through.

Dry wine with scents of red fruits. Medium to full bodied with balanced tannin profile.
