La Clarte De Haut Brion Blanc 2016 (1x75cl)

White Bordeaux from Pessac-Leognan is one of those categories people forget about until they pour one, and then it clicks. Wines from this appellation are usually built on Sauvignon Blanc with Semillon, which gives you citrus lift plus a bit of weight instead of just crisp and thin.

This is a white you can bring to a proper dinner without it feeling like the warm-up act. Steamed fish, scallops, roast chicken all work. Free HK delivery over HK$800, flat HK$80 under, 2-5 business days.

Tasting notes

Whites from this appellation typically show citrus and white stone fruit with a rounder texture and a long dry finish. Chill it, but not ice cold, or you lose the middle.
