STORY BEHIND THE WINE

Whilst somewhat unusual for a Bordeaux white, use of Sauvignon Gris grape adds a wonderful concentration of flavour when blended with Sauvignon Blanc. La Gravette represents the 2nd white wine from the prestigious Château Couhins in the spiritual home of Bordeaux whites. Like many other Chateaux in the region, their 2nd wine are more than a match for many others first and will leave you seeking out their Grand Vin.
