Merchant's description
The 2016 La Tour Carnet Blanc is a gorgeous wine made from a blend of 75% Sauvignon Blanc and 25% Semillon. It is generous and expansive with delightful notes of lemon curd, lime zest, pineapple and blossom. This is a classical Bordeaux blend of two varieties working in perfect synergy.
