I think white bordeaux is usually a blend with a significant SB component. The ones I've had are more neutral and grassy and less fruity than the new world style SB's. I've enjoyed a white bordeaux we get in D.C. fron Chateau Thieuley that costs about 10.00. I remember having a glass while walking around the yard and it was pretty nice. Some of the premium Bordeaux producers produce these wines and they've gotten pretty expensive here. You might find them at a lower relative cost in France. I think there are some nice bargains with some of these wines in the US though. They don't get a lot of press. The new world SB's are great, too.
