Product Highlights

Full Product Description

Château Les Charmes-Godard Blanc 2018 is a refined dry white Bordeaux from the Francs Côtes de Bordeaux appellation. This white wine revives the traditional style of quality dry whites once produced in the Bordeaux-Côtes-de-Francs area, using classic Bordeaux white varieties such as Sémillon, Sauvignon Blanc, and Sauvignon-family grapes. Bodeboca notes that Nicolas Thienpont’s Château Les Charmes-Godard Blanc is made from Sémillon, Sauvignon, and Muscadelle, while WineAlign lists the 2018 vintage specifically as 63% Sémillon, 21% Sauvignon Blanc, and 16% Sauvignon Gris.

The 2018 vintage offers aromas of lemon drops, pink grapefruit, Bosc pear, citrus, white flowers, coriander seed, white pepper, and subtle oak. On the palate, it is dry, fresh, textured, and elegant, with Sémillon richness, Sauvignon freshness, gentle barrel complexity, and a clean mineral finish. Wine.com describes the 2018 Château Les Charmes-Godard Blanc with scents of lemon drops, pink grapefruit, Bosc pears, coriander seed, and white pepper.

This is a great choice for customers looking for a mature white Bordeaux with more texture and complexity than a simple Sauvignon Blanc. Serve it with grilled fish, seafood, shellfish, roast chicken, creamy pasta, goat cheese, sushi, vegetable dishes, and refined casual dinners.
