Bright color, pale gold with almond green glints. On the nose, great freshness, very pure, lively, refined and complex. The fruity aromas offer citrus zest as well as fresh white-fleshed fruits, ripe but not excessively. The vineyard peach is fully expressed. On the white flower side, we find hawthorn, linden and acacia flower. This bouquet, racy and seductive, reveals mineral and saline fragrances, quartz, gunflint, signature of the gravelly soils. The palate is juicy, dense, suave, silky and very delicate. The superb acid tension perfectly structures this wine and gives it great freshness. The purity of the flavors brings out a finish of great elegance. Impeccable balance, classic style.

Professional Ratings

98 James Suckling
A serious nose with great depth and complexity here. Fine oak spices, chalk, meringue, lanolin and a twist of praline/pistachio to the intense lemons, honeyed gooseberries and mineral. Extremely harmonious with a deliciously saline touch to the center palate. Medium- to full-bodied, with a persistent but elegant and subtle finish that lasts almost a minute. 70% sauvignon blanc and 30% semillon. Already a joy to taste and drink, but will hold well over the next 15 years at least. Drink or hold.

This is a serious white wine. Its structure and its spicy fruit tones lend depth. The style is ageworthy with ripe white fruits that are touched by apricots. Barrel Sample: 96–98

A rich honeyed apple and apricot nose with soft white blossom notes. So lifted and expressive on the palate, creamy lemon, pear, red apple and apricot. Gently round, this has a nice delicacy but also good weight - a refined palate with a soft creaminess. Easy to drink and enjoy with excellent structure and density for the vintage, you get enough acidity and texture to give a full mouthfeel without anything being too much or over the top but still with enough flavor that it's interesting and compelling. A top buy. Barrel Sample: 95
