If the reds struggled in Bordeaux in 2013, the whites have shone. None more so than this brilliant effort by Olivier Bernard. A blend of 70% Sauvignon Blanc and 30% Semillon, this is both crisp and weighty with intense flavours of citrus, greengage and sherbet mingling with a creamy, mealy savouriness. Also terrific mouthfeel, balance and length. Great wine.
