Bordeaux offers perfectly balanced white wines made from Sauvignon and Sémillon, offering the ideal combination of fruit, liveliness and aromatic richness. Although most of these wines are consumed young, others are sought after for their complexity, their strength and their ageing potential. These AOCs include wines from all categories: from simple, easy to drink wines, to wines that have been classified, notably in the Graves.
The family of Dry White Wines is composed of all white wines produced in the Gironde, including within appellations specific to red wine production (Médoc, Saint-Emilion-Pomerol-Fronsac...) or to the production of sweet wines (Sauternes ...).
This family of wines is comprised of 12 AOCs and represents 8% of Bordeaux wines.
