White Bordeaux from the Fourth Growth Saint-Julien estate—one of the Médoc's largest at 110 hectares. The property, named after 15th-century English commander Sir John Talbot, has been owned by the Cordier family since 1917 and is now run by fourth-generation sisters Lorraine Rustmann and Nancy Bignon-Cordier. Caillou Blanc comes from 5.2 hectares of 45-year-old vines: 76% Sauvignon Blanc, 24% Sémillon. Fermented and aged 8 months in oak with regular bâttonage. High Environmental Value Level 3 certified.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Grilled sole or turbot with beurre blanc, a plate of Bordeaux oysters, or goat cheese salad with herbs. Roast chicken with lemon works too — the oak gives it enough body.

Tasting Profile

Dry white Bordeaux with grapefruit, lemon and white peach on the nose, plus a nutty, faintly waxy note from Sémillon and eight months in barrel with lees stirring. Medium-bodied and creamy in texture but held together by crisp acidity, with a mineral, slightly bitter citrus-pith finish. Not aromatic in the tropical Sauvignon mold — more restrained and savory. Serve chilled; drink now or over the next several years.
