RED BORDEAUX
PESSAC - LEOGNAN
30
Pessac-Léognan is located in the northern part of
the Graves region, south of the city of Bordeaux.
The white wines of Pessac are just as famous as
the reds. The red wines are made predominantly
of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and the whites
from Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon. One of the
finest First Growths is found here: Château Haut-
Brion. To complicate things, Pessac-Léognan
created its own internal appellation of Grand Cru
Classé in 1959. Typical tasting terms for red wines
are blackcurrant and cedar in a restrained earthy
style. The white wines are often barrel fermented
and show aromas of apricot and nectarine when
young are more toast and honey with age.
