Tucked into Bordeaux's tiny Cérons appellation, Château de Cérons has been run since 2012 by Xavier and Caroline Perromat, who farm limestone-rich slopes that lean toward an elegant, mineral style of Graves. This dry white is the everyday star — mostly Sémillon with Sauvignon Blanc, fermented in stainless to keep it bright and fresh. Expect lemon, white flowers and a gentle smoky-saline lift, with energetic texture and a long, clean finish. A serious, food-friendly white Bordeaux that flies under the radar. Hard to beat for the table.

Robert Parker

91 points

"A blend of 90% Sémillon and 10% Sauvignon Blanc, the 2023 de Cérons Blanc possesses a delicate, fresh bouquet of confit citron, lemon, herbs and pear, followed by a medium-bodied, incisive and textural palate that segues into a long, mouthwatering and saline finish. It was vinified with no malolactic fermentation and matured in stainless tanks." —Yohan Castaing

Wine Enthusiast

"A citrus aroma and a spicy edge give this wine a lively, ripe character. With its blend that includes Sauvignon Gris and Muscadelle, the wine has a perfumed aroma and a lively aftertaste. Drink from 2025." —Roger Voss

More about Chateau de Cerons

Cérons is one of Bordeaux's least-known appellations, a sweet-wine enclave just downstream of Barsac and Sauternes. Château de Cérons is the best reason to learn the name: polished dry whites and reds made with the finesse of a top Pessac-Léognan estate, from a village most drinkers have never heard of.

The estate is a 17th-century chartreuse above the Garonne, now a listed historic monument. Xavier and Caroline Perromat have run it since 2012. Caroline joined Xavier after fifteen years at Château Haut-Bailly in Pessac-Léognan, and that polish shows. Their 26 hectares sit on a plateau of gravel, sand and small stones over limestone. The estate holds HVE3 and ISO 14001 environmental certification.

Today most of the production is dry: a citrusy, mineral Graves Blanc made from Sémillon and Sauvignon, and a Graves Rouge from Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. A few hectares are still kept for sweet Cérons, picked in several passes through the vines to gather only botrytised grapes, then aged in oak, just as in Sauternes. Think of the whites especially as serious, food-friendly Bordeaux that flies under the radar.
