Note: Bettane & Desseauve (Le Monde 2) Top Pick
“Château Malromé serves as a timely reminder that the Sémillon grape can produce the most original and full-bodied white wines of the Southwest, with inimitable notes of acacia honey... The 2005 Château Malromé, vinified to perfection, restores confidence in the ability of this “canton” of the Gironde—which already heralds Bergerac—to produce truly great whites at prices that are a bargain for their class” (Michel Bettane & Thierry Desseauve). A 100% Sémillon you must discover immediately!
