Blanc de Moncets

BORDEAUX BLANC

Selected in 2024 by Domaines de Moncets for its natural texture on the palate and aromatic quality,
Le Blanc de Moncets 2024, AOC Bordeaux Blanc is crafted from the stunning clay clay-limestone slopes of Soussac in Gironde.
This pale yellow white wine showcases all the roundness of Sémillon. It offers an aromatic complexity without any wood influence, featuring notes of yellow yellow-fleshed fruits, honey, and a freshness brought by Sauvignon Blanc.
Le Blanc de Moncets is certified organic.
