This is the dry white from Jean-Marie Guffens’ Bordeaux project. Having established two iconic properties in Burgundy, Guffens was given the opportunity to purchase the historic Château Closiot from Bernard Sirot.
Château Closiot sits on the Clos Bonneau, an exceptional terroir where red earth dotted with pebbles rests on the limestone base typical of the Barsac plateau. The dry wine is a blend of Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc, with both varieties vinified entirely in oak with approximately 25% new barrels.
Yields were just 18 hl/ha for his dry wines, and as he puts it, C de Sec has the density of a sweet wine, but without the sugar
