Chateau La Commanderie De Queyret – White Bordeaux 2009

Named for a Commandery of Knights based here in the 13th Century, this highly respected estate sits on 106 hectares of clay/limestone soils, 20 of which is planted in Sauvignon Blanc- used in this wine.  A delightfully pungent aroma and taste of sweet pea, lemon/lime, and grapefruit greets you, along with a dusty grey stone minerality and bracing acidity.  It will enhance any seafood dish like trout, oysters, or shrimp, as well as salads, poultry, tex/mex dinners, and especially Asian stir-fry with snow pea pods.  The 2009 vintage is being raved about by experts as one of the top vintages EVER in Bordeaux.  So, it’s an exciting pleasure to get to sample whites from this vintage now, like this one, before the reds are released.  Something to look forward to!

$14.99 /sale price- $16.99 / regular
