I was at a wine shop today and realized that Fran and I really have never had a white Bordeaux before. We've tried a few at tastings, but nothing I can remember. So I picked up this bottle for $13 to give it a shot.
Orange zest and grapefruit on the nose.
Grassy and mineral notes with loads of grapefruit on the palate. It's quite acidic, my mouth waters for a long while after drinking and it is a dry wine---drier than I normally look for, but I still enjoy it. This is a fantastic wine...one that has sold me on White Bordeauxs. I look forward to trying more.

Thanks....I purchased 3 bottles of the 2008 from Sherry Lehman on-line...I was a little nervous when I opened the carton to find I have wine that I never tasted before....now I feel better!
