This Bordeaux white is produced entirely from Sémillon, from 80-year-old vines, a rarity in Bordeaux. There is an intriguing bouquet of tropical fruit aromas with delicate floral notes. Hints of honey and almonds add a velvety texture, while a subtle minerality underscores the wine's elegance.
In 1973, Philippe Le Grix de la Salle left the Créon cooperative and started up his winery. This was the birth of Grand Verdus as a wine Château in the classic Bordeaux mould. Under the courtyard of the 400-year-old structure are the wine cellars. At the same time, some Premiers Grand Crus Classés of the Médoc are also developed. With the help of Emile Peynaud, a famous professor at the Faculty of Oenology of Bordeaux and “mentor” of Philippe Le Grix de la Salle, a modern Bordeaux Château is born.
