This is very intense and powerful with dried apple, pear and aniseed. Crushed stone, too. Full-bodied and rather chewy with phenolics and intensity. A real sense of soil and depth. Draws you down. Fantastic finish. 95%...

Introducing the exquisite 2019 Les Champs Libres Sauvignon Blanc from Bordeaux, France. This white wine is a true gem, displaying elegance and finesse that is sure to captivate even the most discerning palates.

With a stunning pale yellow color that shimmers in the glass, this wine is a visual delight. The nose is rich and evocative, offering a bouquet of white fruits, including peach and apricot, accompanied by subtle notes of yellow flowers. The aromas are fresh and inviting, promising a sensory journey unlike any other.

On the palate, this Sauvignon Blanc showcases a perfect balance of tension and juiciness. The tongue is greeted with remarkable clarity and texture, as flavors of lemon, green apple, peach juice, pineapple, and grapefruit unfold. The acidity is high, almost tangy, but expertly balanced by a lovely touch of minerality that adds complexity and depth to the exotic fruit profile.

The Les Champs Libres 2019 Blanc is a blend of mostly Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc vine genetics, with a small percentage of Sauternes Semillon genetics. This unique combination contributes to the wine's excellent presence and character. It is a true testament to the winemaker's dedication and expertise.
