Hervé Dubourdieu’s easy charm and modest disposition are complemented by his focus and ferocious perfectionism. He prefers to keep to himself, spending most of his time with his family in his modest, tasteful home, surrounded by his vineyards in the Sauternes and Graves appellations. Roûmieu-Lacoste, situated in Haut Barsac, originates from his mother’s side of the family, dating back to 1890. He also owns Château Graville-Lacoste and Château Ducasse, where he grows grapes for his Graves Blanc and Bordeaux Blanc, respectively.
Tasting Notes: This beautiful, aromatic white Bordeaux is a blend of Semillon with Sauvignon Blanc and finally, a small percentage of Muscadelle that brings even more fruit and spice to the table. Add it all up and you have a beautifully balanced mouthful of bright, fresh, crisp fruit and earth.
