2022 Yvon Mau Premius Atypiquement Bordeaux Blanc

Slurp Wines NR

Yvon Mau is a quality-focused negociant in Bordeaux working with growers across the region. Premius Atypiquement (Atypically) is their experimental range showcasing uncommon grape varieties and blends beyond traditional Bordeaux norms. This white typically blends Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon with less common varieties like Muscadelle or Colombard, creating something more aromatic and distinctive. The 2022 vintage is fresh and expressive. Citrus, white peach and tropical notes with floral aromatics and fresh herbs. Medium bodied with crisp acidity and a clean, refreshing finish. There`s more aromatic complexity here than standard white Bordeaux, showing the influence of the atypical varieties. Fruit-forward and approachable with good purity. Lively character. Serve well chilled (8-10°C). Pairs well with Asian cuisine, grilled prawns, goat`s cheese salads, or works as an aromatic aperitif. The fresher, fruitier style makes it versatile. Drink within 2-3 years while the aromatics are vibrant. [Slurp Wines, 05/06/2026]
