(94-96 vvPunkte) Mittleres Grüngelb. Die Nase ist super duftig, frisch und zeigt Zitrusfrüchte, weissen Pfirsich, feine weisse Blüten. Im Gaumen klar und rein, mittlerer Körper, die Frucht beginnt im Auftakt süss, wird dann von einer feinen Säurestruktur, der Wein hat Rasse und Frische, tänzelt über die Zunge, grandiose Balance und ein langanhaltendes, feinwürziges, frisches Finale. Das hat Klasse! (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2022. Château Margaux)

Selections of Bordeaux 2021 from barrel: What vivid focus! An exemplary wine of elegance and depth, the 100% Sauvignon Blanc stands up to the best white vintages from this esteemed First Growth, including 2014 and 2017. Picked between 7 and 13 September, the wine conveys quince, white stone fruit (juicy pear), subtle lemon peel and intriguing smoky aspects that season the wine. A very long finish, to boot. “We have density and power, and I am wondering if it is better than the 2017”, said director Philippe Bascaules. I would love to compare both in a vertical. (95-97)

White flowers, yellow citrus and orange rind with a hint of white peach. green apples and spice nuances are all over the place here. The wine shows a lushness and rich character that is equally fresh, crisp and vibrant on the palate and in the finish. In fact, it is almost racy in its attitude. The wine is produced from 100% Sauvignon Blanc. 13.3% ABV. Drink from 2024-2037. 95-95
