Château Lafont Menaut
AOC Pessac-Léognan White
Coming from the same family which owns Château Carbonnieux one of Bordeaux's most acclaimed dry white wines, it is hardly surprising that Philibert Perrin has shown a true talent for making white wine. Close to another celebrated property, Smith Haut-Lafitte, Lafont Menaut is at once elegant and rich, with intense minerally flavours and classic Bordeaux Sauvignon Blanc aromas of citrus and exotic fruit.

TASTING NOTES
Made under the watchful eye of Philibert Perrin, who is also the owner of Château Carbonnieux, this wine presents the same underlying structure with the typical freshness of Sauvignon and highly characteristic minerality. The floral and tropical aromas are echoed on the palate with a vibrant generosity which give this wine much charm. Drink chilled as an aperitif with friends, or as an accompaniment to a summer meal.
AGEING
To drink young but good ageing potential – 4-5 years.
