This is a strong vintage for Bordeaux’s dry white wines, probably as good or better than 2005. Crisp acidity combined with outstanding concentration and the fact that most of the white grapes were harvested before the rains began in mid-September resulted in an impressive group of wines. Here, buttery gold colour with some oaky buttery aromas - one can almost smell the oiliness. More evolved nose than some of the other wines in this group. This is more complex than ‘07 with honey almond notes but lots of dry citrus on the palate. Good body. Deep expression. A second opportunity gave lovely light herbaceous aromas. Dry - sherry-like - and citrussy flavours on the palate along with kiwis, lichee and gooseberries. Lots of fruit. Very elegant and fine.
