A blend of 60% Sémillon and 40% Sauvignon Blanc from 35-year-old vines in the commune of Cérons. Sémillon fermented in new and 1-year-old French oak barrels and Sauvignon fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel. Left on lees for stirring using the oxoline system for six months. Sémillon aged for 6 months in new and 1-year-old French oak. 2010 was a year for freshness and clean floral aromas with a balanced level of acidity. As always, distinctive mineral characters typical of Graves terroir are in evidence. Bouquet consists of honey and citrus fruit. Sauvignon Blanc adds vivacity and floral aromas. Long considered the finest, privately-held château and vineyards of Graves.

94 points and 'Top 100 Wine of 2012 (#54),' Wine Enthusiast: "[$60 list] Full of tropical fruit flavors, this is rounded, ripe and very accessible. At the same time, its structure shows through in the tang of green apple skin, judicious wood aging and taut aftertaste. (Dec 2012)"
91 points Wine Spectator: "Still youthfully crunchy, with pear skin and green plum notes bouncing along, while the core of verbena, tarragon, white peach and heather waits in reserve. A light toasty edge should fill in nicely on the finish as this ages. Drink now through 2014. (11/9/11)"

This wine comes from near the village of Soulignac. The general planting ratio is two-thirds old vine Semillon and one-third Sauvignon-Blanc. Château Haut-Rian is always seductive and brilliant: green-gold tinged with an aromatic fresh nose of newly cut hay, grapefruit and minerals. It delivers striking scents of lime and lemon rind, whiffs of honeydew and even a hint of seashells. And no taste of oak to be found, just 'pure play' dry white. Ideal as an aperitif, but works equally well with fish or shellfish.

A dry white Bordeaux wine, made from a blend of Sauvignon Blanc 40%, Sémillon 40% and Muscadelle 20%. This blend, based on ancient tradition, is rare in Bordeaux these days. Traditional winemaking : skin contact (50%), cool fermentation (16/18°C) in vat, and barrel-ageing on the lees for about 3 weeks, which makes the wine round, smooth, and fruity. This wine is ideal as an aperitif and with fish, seafood (oysters, mussels), or goat's cheese. Best enjoyed young (within 2 years of the vintage).

88 points Wine Enthusiast: "[$15 list] This rich, ripe and fruity wine features white fruits, a soft texture and balanced acidity. With the rounded texture, it feels warm, though the Sauvignon Blanc also provides the essential herbaceous edge. Age for a few months. Alcohol 12.5%. (Feb 2013)"
80% Sauvignon Blanc blended with 20% Semillon. Crisp, clean and very refreshing, with aromas of freshly cut grass, lemon zest, and grapefruit. The fruit flavors carry over on the palate with a strong mineral backbone. Organic farming, small yields and alcohol of 12.5% make this a perfect wine to enjoy through the hot summer days.
