Comme en décembre 2022, ce Pessac-Léognan blanc se boit merveilleusement bien, très "sec" mais incroyablement fin, avec des notes d'ananas des Açores (avec sa fine acidité piquante, pas du tout sucrée), de zeste de citron vert et d'un peu de pamplemousse, associées à une pointe de gingembre. Un vin incroyablement frais qui se boira probablement encore très bien dans 10 ans. Je suis en tout cas impatient de le voir évoluer. 92

Wonderful fresh melon nose. Palate shows summer fruits with first pour, becoming slightly herbal, hint of oak, with air. Has balance and acidity to last. But terrific now. Nice when paired with crab cakes. Probably great with broiled lobster.

Melon and herb nose. Medium to full bodied.Refreshing and balanced. Touch of herbs. Good refreshing acidity in its medium long aftertaste. Much better balance than the 2020. Still very fresh at 8+ years, it should continue to evolve for at least 2-3 more. Enjoyable now though.

Wafting nose. Fruity, minerals, refreshing acidity. Crowd pleasing dry white. Perfect with chicken kebab with saffron rice with onions and raisins. Might even be better with savory Thai cuisine. Or very nice as an aperitif.

Still light gold. Nose just as amazing as palate. Fruity, dry, minerals, at peak, I think.
