La Bretonniere - Blaye Dry White 2024

A 70% Merlot and 30% Malbec blend from 15-year-old vines on clay-sandy soils with gravel, steeped 24 to 48 hours before fermentation in temperature-controlled vats and aged five months in stainless steel and French oak. A wine that sits between a light red and a rosé, built for everyday drinking. 15,000 bottles produced.
