The Story
This wine is made of 85% Sauvignon Blanc and 15% Sémillon. It is aged on its lees and has a juicy, textured palate of mango, lemon curd, and honey. We would pair this with drunken noodles with ground pork. Château Jean Faux, located not far from the Côtes de Castillon, is an historical estate that dates back to the 18th century. The estate consists of 45 hectares of woods, orchards, rolling hills and 11.5 hectares of vineyard is two hectares of vines reserved for white grapes, consisting of 80% Sauvignon Blanc and 20% Sémillon. The terroir of Château Jean Faux is clay and limestone soils. Since 2011, the property farms using only 100% biodynamic farming techniques in the vineyards.
