STORY BEHIND THIS WINE

The all-conquering Sauvignon Blanc isn’t going anywhere just yet but it is refreshing to get a new take on it. That’s certainly what you get here. Sauvignon Gris is one of the lesser known grapes of Bordeaux and is characterised by adding a wonderful concentration of flavour to blend. La Gravette represents the 2nd white wine from the prestigious Château Couhins in the spiritual home of Bordeaux whites.
