60% Sauvignon Blanc, 40% Sémillon. Grassy freshness, a slight tannic sensation on the palate. On the lean side. (JH)

Smudgy black cherry. Gently aromatic, lifted red fruit with a touch of vanilla sweetness. Powdery layer of tannins balanced by just enough fruit and freshness all the way through. Juicy cherry aftertaste. Moderate length. On the slim side. (JH)
About the producer

Picque Caillou
Neighbouring Haut-Brion and Pape Clément, this estate has been turned around since Paulin Calvet took over in 2007. Working with the legendary late Denis Dubourdieu and Valérie Lavigne, results have been impressive.
