Deep Dive Bordeaux: Dry white vs Sweet white
Hosted by Jane Anson & Demetri Walters MW
Assisted by a terrific line-up of wines including Château Climens, Château Guiraud and the acclaimed Château d’Yquem, Jane Anson and Demetri Walters MW continue our forensic investigation into all things Bordeaux by taking a close look at the paler side of the world’s best-dressed region.
Ranging from the exhilaratingly dry through to the indulgently sticky, our duo talk grapes, methods, properties and histories as they outline why Bordeaux’s white wines can stand just as tall as their red counterparts.
