Chateau Belingard Bergerac Blanc

This dry, refreshing blend of Sauvignon Blanc (80%), Semillon (10%) and Muscadelle (10%) is the perfect balance; not too zippy, but bright. Not too fruity, but still a little juicy. A clean, crisp and very approachable wine that calls out to be included in Sunday long lunches or picnics at the beach. If you're looking for something "other than a NZ Sav," this is a great alternative with a slightly softer style but still all the freshness.

Bergerac. Overshadowed neighbour to Bordeaux, and home to some of the best value wines in France—if you know what to look for. Though the region is well-known (if you can say it’s well-known at all) for its red wines, white grapes are also an important part of the vineyard plantings. And just as in Bordeaux, Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon are both important varieties here. Fresh, aromatic, elegant, citrusy, and dry, this is a fraction of the price you would pay for classic Bordeaux Blanc, coming from a 7-generation winery whose whole MO is quality and unique expression of place.
