Château Reynaud Lacoste Sauvignon Blanc 2020

Description

Château Reynaud Lacoste sits in the Entre-Deux-Mers appellation and has been in the Lacoste family for six generations. The winemaker today is Benoît Lacoste, who is passionate about environmentally friendly practices. This is made purely from Sauvignon Blanc. But the grape has different flavours from what you may expect in New Zealand. Here, it’s more subtle. Unusually for a white wine, this is made in contact with its skins (a practice common in red winemaking) before being rested on its lees. This makes for a textured, more full-bodied white wine with plenty of character. Great with asparagus risotto.
