2020 Chateau Argadens Bordeaux Blanc
Tasting Notes
The Château Argadens Bordeaux Blanc displays clarity and luminosity that hint at its youthful vibrancy with a glistening pale straw color
Upon swirling the glass, the nose is greeted with an inviting bouquet of citrus and orchard fruits. Crisp notes of green apple and ripe pear intertwine with delicate hints of white peach, creating an aromatic symphony that is fresh and uplifting. A subtle floral undertone adds an extra layer of complexity to the aromatic profile.
The first sip reveals a beautifully structured wine with a medium-bodied mouthfeel. The acidity is well-balanced, providing a lively and refreshing character that enlivens the palate. A medley of flavors unfolds, with zesty lemon and tangy grapefruit taking the lead. These citrus notes are complemented by nuances of tropical fruit, such as pineapple and hints of passion fruit, which add a touch of exoticism to the wine.
About Château Argadens
In 2002, Maison Sichel bought a property in Saint-André-du-Bois 60 km south of Bordeaux and renamed it Château Argadens in reference to the noble family which founded the estate in the thirteenth century.
A major investment programme was launched at Château Argadens to restructure the vineyard, increase plantation density, modernise the winery and build an ageing cellar. Efforts are going on to ensure that this work is carried out with the greatest precision and care, the objective being to allow the quality of the terroir to be expressed to the full.
Château Argadens produces one white and one red wine.
The very first vintage of Château d’Argadens won a medal in the Concours des Grands Vins de France in Mâcon. It wins numerous awards and distinctions every year, proof of Maison Sichel’s clear determination to earn Château d’Argadens a place among the best wines in its appellation of Bordeaux Supérieur.
