Pale yellow with subtle green glints. The delicate aromas are a combination of white peach, lemon and pear, suffused with a subtle vanilla and butter caramel from its oak aging. Elegant finish suggesting citronella and lemon zest with a lovely balance between richness and acidity.
With buildings listed among France’s historic monuments, Château Villa Bel-Air is located in Bordeaux’s lower Graves. The estate produces this dry white from Sauvignon Blanc, the traditional grape for the complex, regal white wines of this important region. Château Villa Bel-Air is owned by the Ballande family of Margaux Grand Cru Classé estate Chateau Prieuré Lichine, long a favorite of our family. According to his letters and papers, Thomas Jefferson was a great fan of Graves wines, purchasing considerable amounts for shipping to our young nation.
