WTF is White Bordeaux? (+ Fish & Chips pairing, Lent, Filet-O-Fish)

04/03/22 • 41 min

If you love Sauvignon Blanc, you need to know WTF White Bordeaux is! A perfect pairing for foods in Lent like fried fish, fish & chips, and other seafood (even a Filet-O-Fish!). We taste and review three White Bordeaux style blends, two from France, and one from Washington State, to help you find a reasonably priced winner. Each blend is different, despite the fact that all three are made from Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc. We also talk about giving things up for Lent, being an altar boy on Good Friday, and our go-to meatless Friday foods. If you ate meat on a Friday this Lent, you can listen to our podcast for your penance! Wines reviewed in this episode: 2019 Dubourdieu Liaison Bordeaux, 2020 L’Ecole No. 41 Luminesce, and 2021 Belingard Bergerac Sec.
