June 20, 2022 - (91-93 vvPunkte) Blasses Goldgelb. Würzige Nase, Kräuter, Salzzitrone, feuchter Stein. Im Gaumen cremig und rund im Auftakt, knackige Frucht, feine, vibrierende Säurestruktur, top Balance. Im Abgang lang, würzig und mit viel Energie. Kann reifen. (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2022.

May 31, 2022 - Selections of Bordeaux 2021 from barrel: While not initially expressive, exciting quince and ripe yellow Kiwi, red apple and subtle herbal tones and spice emerge, accentuated on the well structured and fresh palate. The white vineyard of Château Couhins-Lurton was severely affected by frost: 60% losses to white wine volume. Such conditions led to “strong heterogeneity” in ripeness, so kudos to the team here to have successfully adapted by spreading pickings between 10 and 27 September. The sanitary state was monitored more closely during the summer, due to botrytis. In the end, the Sauvignons harvested (this is 100% Sauvignon Blanc) are of high quality indeed. Lovely! (94-96)

May 20, 2022 - Pomelo, lemon, lime, green apples and hints of spice are all over the place here. Ripe, fresh, sweet, crisp and creamy, this is already just great to enjoy. Drink from 2023-2032. 93-93
