This is white Bordeaux at its freshest, bursting with herbaceous flavors, very grassy. It does have some weight of green plum flesh and a creamy texture. Delicious.

A well-made, fresh wine, wearing its black currant and berry fruit easily, to give good depth of flavor. The structure is muted, but the whole wine is well balanced, and ready to drink.
