White Bordeaux for Summer

There is a wine I get every summer.
Chateau Graville-Lacoste Graves.
White wine from Bordeaux.
The grape varieties are Semillon 75%, Sauvignon Blanc 20%, Muscadelle 5%. 
There are the freshness of green fruits and the sharpness of grapefruits. 
The subtle sweetness of honeysuckle is balanced with its acidity.  

This wine has been our staple summer drink for more than 10 years. 
The quality is stable, and so is its price. It's affordable and very likable.
When I feel like opening some wine but don't know which kind of wine or which kind of food I would pair with it, I choose this friendly wine.
Because everybody I know likes this wine,  this is the first pick to bring to any kind of gatherings.
