Mary Taylor Bordeaux Blanc (Jean Marc Barthez) 2021 |
Mary Taylor is a negociant sourcing from specific individual producers, in this case Jean Marc Barthez, who presides over a small co-op winery in Bordeaux’s Entre-Deux-Mers region. It is 95% sauvignon blanc and 5% semillon. At only 11.5% alcohol if offers up a light to mid-weight, unoaked version with nicely defined sauvignon aromas of gooseberry, guava, lime, quinine and tarragon. It is very well balanced, lively and crisp with very good flavour intensity and a bitter green finish. A very fine example at an excellent price.
Vintage for the white Bordeaux started 10 days earlier than usual, with an early flowering and a rather dry year. We picked early in order to keep freshness and minerality on the Sauvignons.
