    Memories and Fantasies of France, Bottled in Bordeaux

    Every year, Wine Access clients let us know in no uncertain terms that Château Turcaud Entre-Deux-Mers is among their favorite white wine bargains. This July we’ll again meet up with Maurice Robert and his son-in-law Stéphane, to catch up and to taste what’s to come. To tide you—and us!—over until then: This perennial favorite is one of the greatest bargain Bordeaux Blancs on our scorecards. The exceptional 2016 Entre-Deux-Mers is beautifully bright with complex citrus and orchard fruit notes and mouthwatering acidity. 

    In the spring every year, around April, we start dreaming of France. We go every July, catching up with old friends, knocking on cellar doors, walking the galet roulés of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, sifting the dirt of the Premier Cru and Grand Cru hillsides above Aloxe-Corton in our fingers, dining in our favorite open-air cafe on the Place des Vosges...

    Sometimes our daydreams take us backward in time, too. To 1982, for instance, and our first sip of Maurice Robert’s stunning blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon at Restaurant Taillevent, Jean-Claude Vrinat's 3-star restaurant in Paris. The warm goat cheese, the toasted walnuts—the memory of the pairing has somehow refused to yield to the passage of 37 years now. Great wine will do that to you. 

    The same wine we savored that summer evening way back then—the Château Turcaud Entre-Deux-Mers—continues to make memories. From the Taillevent wine list to our own well-stocked cellars, Wine Access clients—and more than a few of us here at HQ!—continue to rank Maurice Robert’s mineral white as one of the most electrifying bargains of almost every vintage. We’re happy to report that 2016 lives up to its predecessors. It’s a surefire hit this summer, and many summers to come. 

    2016 brought a Bordeaux Blanc bumper crop to Entre-Deux-Mers, even for those growers, like Maurice Robert and his son-in-law Stéphane Le May, who dropped fruit aggressively. The Decanter reviewer who, in giving a growing season update, reported “tasting some beautiful aromatic vats in Entre deux Mers” wasn’t kidding: The aromas are top-notch. They taste even better.
