    (Chateau Luchey Halde Blanc) #2; COLOR-medium golden; NOSE-a huge explosion of lemon Starburst candy; a little detergent component; beautiful graininess; pretty; TASTE-a beautiful lemon/citrus component; very focused & very rich; medium bodied; nice long finish; grainy w/ green tea; a seductive flavor profile; I love the creaminess of the weight; a silky Crème Fraîche component; the body weight of a classic Chardonnay, but the focused cleanness of a Sauvignon Blanc; tremendous complexity; this is an exceptional bottle; GV-91+
