A lighter leaner,less complex version of Ch. Carbonnieux. On nose: fresh hay , oak resin and a hint of wax and meyer lemon. On palate: a follow through of the above, with bracing acidity and a hint of quinine.....minerals and a finish of dry peach pit as it warms up.....5 more years of bottle age may flesh it out....great shellfish wine.

Delicate yet complex. What a wonderful white Bordeaux blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Sauvignon Gris, and Semillon grapes. This wine's bouquet reveals a lovely freshness of white peaches, apples, lemons, green herbs, and minerality. It also has subtle notes of dried brioche. The wine is round, with a soft mouthfeel and balanced, bright and refreshing acidity. The medium finish tastes of stone fruits.

Bright, fresh, forward and loaded with sweet, juicy, citrus and lemon peel, along with a touch of honey suckle, the wine is crisp and refreshing.
