Château Reynon Sauvignon Blanc, Bordeax
Château Reynon is a Bordeaux estate located in the commune of Beguey within the Cadillac Côtes de Bordeaux AOC. It produces several wines, notably a red blend of the common Bordeaux varieties. It also produces a sweet white wine made in limited quantities and only in the best vintages from botrytized grapes, which takes advantage of the Cadillac AOC designation.
Reynon is part of Denis Dubourdieu Domaines. It was originally bought by Jacques David in 1958; his daughter Florence and her husband Denis took over running the property in 1976.
The group also includes the grand cru classé second growth Château Doisy-Daëne in Barsac, as well as Château Cantegril, Château Haura and Clos Floridène.
Denis Dubourdieu (1949-2016) was one of the first winemakers in Bordeaux to use new oak barrels in the fermentation of white wines. He is often credited with the rise in quality of dry whites in southern Bordeaux.
Dubourdieu was also the director for the Institute of Vine and Wine Sciences of the University of Bordeaux and a renowned consultant.
