A.O.C. Bordeaux Blanc Cuvée Cythère

The Bordeaux Blanc A.O.C. “CYTHÈRE” vintage comes from a selection of the oldest vineyards. It is a dry, white wine that results from a process known as pellicular maceration (the skins must bubble together for 24 hours before the pressing). Intensely fruity, full-bodied and rich, with a lingering finish, it may be enjoyed alone as an aperitif or, alternatively, it goes very well with fish cooked in a sauce or white meat.
