Overview

While it might seem tempting to think of this as covering all your bases, Sauvignon (previously called Les Vignes Blanches) is far from a muddle. Each variety contributes something to the final blend that somehow becomes greater than the parts. All come from the granitic soils of Château Thébaud, are fermented separately and blended after a few months of aging on the lees.
