Honeysuckle, lemon rind, spice, crushed rocks, white peach, tangerine and vanilla deliver the complex aromatics. Fresh and creamy, with layers of sweet, yellow citrus, pineapple, and a breath of herbs on the backend, the wine shows promise. This is going to be simply fabulous on release. The harvest took place August 18 - September 2. The wine blends 90% Sauvignon Blanc, 5% Semillon, and 5% Sauvignon Gris. ABV %14.5. Drink from 2025-2035. 95-95 Pts.

98 vvPunkte / (90% Sauvignon Blanc, 5% Sauvignon Gris und 5% Sémillon): Mittleres Gelb. In der Nase mit viel Grapefruit, exotische Früchte, Mango, Papaya, darüber viele würzige Noten und florale Töne, sehr komplex Im Gaumen reichhaltig, voluminös, ein opulenter Wein, mit viel Frucht, einer sehr super Säurestruktur, das ist ein Muskelwein auf dem Seil, balanciert, sensationelle Dichte, ausgezeichnete Länge! Ein grandioser Weisswein! (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2023 auf Château Smith Haut Lafitte) #primeurs22 www.vvWine.ch

En Primeur campaign for the 2022 vintage Day Seven (Bordeaux): A little gooseberry, cream, sweet spice, Juicy tends to medium plus intensity acidity is a little harsh, fruit slight muted, oak a little clumsy. Fairly shocking stuff.
