Chateau Saint-Marie employs a classic blend of 50% Sauvignon Blanc, 40% Semillon and 10% Muscadelle to fashion this refreshing and distinctive white Bordeaux. Lemon-gold in the bowl, Sainte-Marie’s Vieilles Vignes opens with aromas of honeysuckle, pink grapefruit, jasmine blossoms and lemon zest. Brisk and lively on the palate, the wine balances an electric kernel of green plum, yellow melon and citrus fruit with piquant basil and jalapeno notes and an underpinning of gravelly minerals. The old-vine concentration emerges on its finish, where the wine’s complexity lingers fresh, lively and persistent for far longer than its price tag suggests. Pair this distinctive selection with green vegetables, light chicken preparations, shellfish, halibut and pastas tossed in oil or butter sauces. Superb, affordable, top caliber white Bordeaux!
