Château Haut-Domingue, Entre-Deux-Mers (Bordeaux, France) 2023 ($12 Evaki Inc.)

Wine label

This estate is one of the oldest in the Entre-Deux-Mers region dating back to 1700, today the estate had 90 acres under vine with an average vine age of 15 years. In 2023, 30% of Sémillon blended with the Sauvignon Blanc which gives it a big, round mouthfeel. Pale yellow in color, it offers an attractive aroma of apple and citrus. The flavors, which take on some subtle lime character, generally lean toward the juicy melon side, but the finish is clean and smooth. Though unusually soft, there’s enough weight and acidity to pair with most entrees. Very good for the price.
