Note di degustazione
Because of both time and space constraints, I am not able to provide tasting notes for the 2009 dry white Bordeaux, but it is an extremely strong vintage. Most châteaux equaled the dazzling quality of the 2007 dry whites. That said, the 2009s tend to be less classic than 2007, but more exotic, honeyed, and higher in alcohol, with compelling richness. The 2009s will probably have a shorter evolutionary curve, but these wines tend to last a long time, even in a vintage such as this. They are fascinating dry white wines.

A blend of 40% Sauvignon Blanc, 40% Semillon and 20% Muscadelle, this has a less leesy bouquet than in previous year (there was no batonnage in 2009.) The Semillon drives the nose with notes of apple-blossom, lime leaf and grapefruit. The palate has a ripe entry, balanced, although perhaps missing a little delineation towards the primal, lime and sherbert-tinged finish but this represents a decent white Saint Emilion, the Muscadelle lending it a Rhone-like sheen. Tasted March 2010.
