Bordeaux 2019 by appellation: Pessac-Leognan and other Bordeaux Blancs
Abstract
Quite a lot has already been written about the white wines of Bordeaux in 2019. And I am not sure that I agree with all of it. For me they represent something of a mixed bag. And, perhaps alarmingly, the issue here is linked clearly to climate change. The trouble is that, year after year and in an accelerating way, these wines have a tendency to become richer, fuller, and higher in alcohol, writes Colin Hay.
