“Blanc” is the French word for “white” and is widely used on wine labels to indicate a white wine. In France and other French-speaking regions, “Blanc” can refer to a range of white wine styles, from single-varietal expressions like Sauvignon Blanc and Chenin Blanc to blends such as Bordeaux Blanc. These wines are produced in diverse terroirs, from the cool, mineral-rich soils of the Loire Valley and Burgundy to the sun-drenched vineyards of Bordeaux and the South of France. Each region imparts its own unique character to the wine, whether through soil composition, climate, or winemaking tradition.
