Note di degustazione
Bouscaut's white wine is often fairly deep in colour compared to many Bordeaux whites, and you see it here with its soft canary yellow, reflective also of a warm year. Opulent texture, clear oak influence, this is enjoyable with vanilla bean-laced apricot fruit, brioche and creamy citrus, given a lift on the fnish with lime zest acidity. Ready to drink, enjoyable gourmet style white. 45% new oak. Harvest August 28 to September 18.

The 2015 Bouscaut Blanc is a little darker in color than its peers. Well-defined scents of butterscotch, praline and citrus fruit leap from the glass, while tropical notes become more pronounced with aeration. The palate is slightly honeyed on the entry, in both texture and taste. This is certainly one of the richer dry white Bordeaux, though it is missing some delineation on the finish. Pleasing but not intellectual. Tasted blind at the Southwold 2015 Bordeaux tasting.
The Bouscaut 2015 Blanc is scented of lemons, grapefruit and hay with wafts of chalk and herbs. The medium-bodied palate is refreshing, clean and pure with a long finish.
