Funk and cat markings initially, later white rose, ginkgo and olive oil with artichoke and lemon zest; a sticky floral note like a predatory plant's lure. Medium heavy mouthfeel with depth turns chewy, then lightens with a sluice of lemon juice and water cutting through the lipids, then emerging chalky and metallic and oh so clean with a minerality that won't quit! Stellar third tier wine from a first class producer!!! #domainedechevalier #whitebordeaux #frenchwine #ClosdeLunes #whitewine — 10 years ago
Calamint, toasted coconut, waxy yellow fruits, orange peel, star anise. Toasty and creamy from plenty of oak, but there’s plenty of stuffing and acidity to handle it. As good as white Bordeaux gets before you have to spend stupid $$$. #turcaud #sauvignongris #sauvignonblanc #muscadelle #semillon #whitebordeaux — 7 years ago
Wowzers. One the oak is a bit more subsumed, this is going to be killer. #bdx #whitebordeaux — 9 years ago

Pale straw hue and glorious citrus, peach, dried apricot, chalk, and white flower notes on the nose. Balanced and complex palate. Light and elegant. Vintage 2017. ABV 13%. 60% Sauvignon Blanc and 30% Semillon. .
