55% Sémillon, 40% Sauvignon Blanc, 5% Muscadelle
TASTING NOTES:
On the palate, Semillon varietal helps giving out fat, round and balanced tastes whereas Sauvignon varietal brings citrus fruits aromas and a very pleasant acidity. Muscadelle varietal offers, on its side, lively floral aromas. When combined, those 3 noble varietals come up with a harmonious and fine balance. This wine offers a brilliant and crystal colour with green reflections. Its nose is intense and develops fruity notes (grapefruit and fig), mineral notes (schist and limestone) and floral notes (acacia tree flowers).

BRAND NAME: Château Merlet
Owned by the Bonhur family since 1978, Château Merlet stands close to the Dordogne and Garonne rivers, in the little village of Cazaugitat, which means summer garden in «Occitan», the regional dialect. Located 45 km south-east of Bordeaux, in the heart of the Entre-deux-Mers region, this 48 hectare vineyard is set around the highest top of the Gironde, enjoying remarkable exposure to the sun.
