Seigneurs de Bergerac 2006

Seigneurs de Bergerac 2006, Bergerac Sec

From the label:

Varietal Blend: 50% Sauvignon, 10% Muscadelle, 40% Semillon.

Tasting Notes: The fresh, delicate nose is enhanced with aroma of citrus and peat. On the palate, these blend with soft spice notes. The abundance of fruit lingers on the finish, yielding a remarkably versatile wine that will pair well with a wide range of light dishes, and is perfect by itself.

My notes: It’s ok for a white wine. Light, not particularly sweet, but not too acidy (and not particularly sulphury, either, just a bit of the smell of hair salon).

I don’t remember where we got it or what we paid, but I think it was Trader Joes, and it would have been $10 or so (since that’s what we pay for most wine).

I would get it again, but not by the case. Plagioclase calls it a “good second white wine.” I’m unsure whether that means the second bottle in an evening, or a reasonable choice if one’s number one white is not available.

Orthoclase: Solid B.
Plagioclase: Solid B.
