I don't often get to drink Sauvignon Blancs with age but I'm going to have to work on changing that. Eight years has managed to put this wine in a fantastic place. It pours a beautiful golden colour, the nose is still fruity with bright citrus, but also has what I would equate to a bisquity scent I get from vintage champagne. On the palette it's integrated beautifully, it still has some mild tart acidity, drys the mouth slightly, but has come together in to a smooth delight. I wish I had more in the cellar. Cork was diam10, not natural.

Pnp. Solbærblader, hage etter regn, papaya, fersken, eple og grapefrukt lukter den for meg. I munnen er de samme aromakomponentene tydelige, med en lett kremet munnfølelse. Frukten føles gul og noe varm. Jeg skulle ønske meg litt mer syre for å balansere den varme munnfølelsen. Medium lengde.

High quality with some age. Vital, but this bottle is a lot. Peach and oak. I stand undecided about if I like it.

Extraordinary accessible and "round" white Pessac-Léognan. Rare for a pure Sauvignon Blanc. Nice to drink now and for the next 3 to 5 years. 90 points
