Default Sauvignon blanc

In a different style, you get Sauv Blanc from Pessac-Leognan - not always
blended with Semillion. E g Smith Haut Lafite, 95% Sauv Blanc, 5% Sauv Gris
(a clone with more color and, I think, milder taste). The difference in
style rests in the fifferent clima (warmer in Bordeaux) and oak aging.

Cheers
