Geoffrey Binder, JJ Buckley, April 2012

90% semillon, 8% sauvignon blanc, 2% muscadelle. Vines are planted on mixed gravel and limestone soils. Fermented in steel vat, then aged in two-year-old barrels. Light green-gold color. A bright, high-toned style with lots of fresh floral aromas, ripe stone fruit, and spice. The palate also features abundant ripe stone fruit mixed with spicy ginger. Sugars are well-integrated and masked nicely by the creamy, fat texture. Enjoy over the next 15 years.

Wine Spectator, April 2012

A very lush, tropical style, with mouthfilling, creamy-textured mango, peach, fig and apricot flavors that are all woven together nicely. Offers lots of toasted hazelnut and ginger cream on the finish, where you can really see the depth.-J.M.

About Winery

"This was originally part of Château Lamothe, which was classified as a 2ème Cru Classé in 1855. The estate was split up in the early 20th century and the vineyards fell into disrepair until the property was purchased by Philippe and Jacques Guignard in 1981. They replanted much of the vineyards as well as completely renovating the buildings at Lamothe-Guignard and installing new winemaking equipment and facilities.There are 17 hectares of vineyards planted with 90% Sémillon, 5% Sauvignon Blanc and 5% Muscadelle. The grapes are harvested in several tries and are then fermented in a mixture of small vats and oak barrels. The wine is then matured in oak barriques (25% new) for 12-15 months. Since 1981 the quality of the wines has dramatically improved and they now represent terrific value for money."
