    White Wine
    Aromas of vanilla oak, fresh limes and greengages, terrific with white wine-braised pork sausages, from this classic Graves estate. Christian Auney's pride in his estate's terroir is such that if you visit he's liable to scoop up a handful of rugged gravel and declare "Voila, le vrai Graves". 80-year-old vines and rigorously low yields result in concentrated flavours and consistently delicious quality. Christian uses Sémillon for richness and a little Muscadelle to liven the final wine. "Gorgeous, Bordeaux blanc made from 80-year-old, low-yielding semillon and muscadelle vines oozing with elegant, ripe, leafy, musky, faintly apricot and peppermint-charged fruit ". Jane MacQuitty, The Times, 8 November 2008 "Mainly Semillon with a drop of Muscadelle. Very full and creamy -seductively complete. A hit of smokiness. Already drinking beautifully." Jancis Robinson, FT, 6th December 2008
