While the serious existentialist Sartre now inhabits a grave, Chateau Le Sartre happily exists in Bordeaux’s Graves region. But, not all Graves are created equal. The choicest area, Pessac-Leognan, earned its own appellation controlee in 1987. This is where one will find Chateau Le Sartre, nicely nestled amongst the most select Bordeaux estates there. 80% Sauvignon Blanc with 20% Semillon providing extra richness and complexity, Chateau Le Sartre more than hits the mark, serving as a sensational, full-bodied wine minus a full-bodied price tag.
Intense, intensely fulfilling aromas of exotic fruit sprinkled with signature white Bordeaux herbs burst from the glass. The abundant flavor flow of passion fruit streaked with lemon, a pinch of fresh and dried garden herbs, and a subtle mineral note enchant the palate. The round, smooth, fuller-bodied, fully balanced texture really gratifies from the almost creamy entry to its marvelously lingering silky length. EXCEPTIONALLY DELICIOUS
