WINE | WHITE WINE | BORDEAUX | PESSAC-LEOGNAN BLANCBottle of : 75cl
A distinguished white from the heart of Graves
- The bouquet unfolds with precision and completeness: fresh citrus and exotic fruits invite immediate exploration, whilst floral notes and subtle oak integration reveal the wine's complexity and breeding.
- The élevage respects rather than dominates the terroir. Vanilla and toasted hazelnut provide structure without masking the mineral, smoky character that defines the Graves appellation.
- Elegant alongside Mediterranean-inspired cuisine and seafood dishes that play with contrasting flavours. Particularly rewarding with scallops and white fish preparations.

Product features : Château Brown 2023 Pessac-Leognan — Pessac-Léognan
Breeding
On fine lees with stirring, in French oak barrels of which 50% new, for 8 months
On the eye
Pale yellow with emerald glints. Brilliant and limpid, with fine tears clinging to the glass.
On the nose
Intense and layered: pink grapefruit and lime lead to passion fruit and mango. Honeysuckle and box-leaf florals emerge, followed by bourbon vanilla and roasted hazelnut from careful oak maturation.
In the mouth
Perfectly balanced, with fresh acidity that carries through to a mineral, salivating finish. Subtle linden and juniper notes provide the final flourish, framing dishes with elegance and restraint.
This wine exemplifies Château Brown's refined approach: ripe fruit generosity married to the smoky minerality of its Graves terroir. The result is haute couture winemaking—sophisticated without pretension. A natural companion to scallops and other refined seafood preparations.

CHATEAU BROWN
Spread across Léognan, Gradignan and Villenave-d'Ornon at the heart of the Pessac-Léognan appellation, Château Brown covers 60 hectares of graves over clay and clay-limestone subsoils — the classic Bordeaux terroir for wines of real depth. Founded in 1795 by Scottish merchant John Lewis Brown, the château was revived under Bernard Barthe from 1994, then decisively reshaped by the Mau and Dirkzwager families from 2004, who steered the estate towards HVE certification, achieved in 2018. At Halles Quercamps, we have selected this château for the consistency of its Cabernet Sauvignon-led reds and the aromatic precision of its Sauvignon Blanc–Sémillon whites, both faithful expressions of the Léognan graves. A dependable Bordeaux address with a clear long-term vision.
PESSAC-LEOGNAN BLANC
Château Brown incarne le style raffiné des grands blancs de Pessac-Léognan. Ce 2023 conjugue la gourmandise du fruit tropical avec une minéralité fumée caractéristique des graves bordelaises. Nez intense d\'agrumes et de fruits exotiques, bouche équilibrée et salivante. À servir avec les mets du soleil et les crustacés nobles.
