White Bordeaux (dry) is a rare visitor to our table but on the evidence of this then we should drink it more often. Very grassy on the nose (wifey thought it NZ SB) but just a tad richer on the palate with good length. Yes it is Sauvignon Blanc and drinking very nicely at the moment.

tropical nose with peach and pineapple which comes back on the palate with a hint of butter and lemon. Good acidity and a long fresh finish. Like it very much

The previous note to this sums this wine up well. 100% SB yet has all the opulence of the usual blends. Overall, very enjoyable. Looking forward to trying this against the Opalie de Coutet.

Freshness and ripeness on the nose, with firm white peach, lemon zest, lime flowers, cut grass, sweet spice. The palate is quite concentrated, intense acidity, and grippy with peach, nectarine, flint, and some tropical fruit. It is ripe, racy, and complex. Just a beautiful drinking wine with potential to age for longer.
