Note di degustazione
The 2019 Olivier Blanc has a very showy melon and grapefruit scented nose, a splash of apricot and peach later on. Just a bit one-dimensional. The palate is better with an attractive texture, slightly oily, some lovely Sémillon notes developing towards the finish. The aromatics improve with aeration, so give this time to do its thing. Tasted blind at the Southwold annual tasting.

Altre recensioni e punteggi
Subtle melon, lime, oyster shell, and some mineral notes all emerge from the 2019 Château Olivier Blanc, a medium-bodied, nicely balanced, quality Bordeaux Blanc to drink over the coming 4-6 years.
The 2019 Olivier Blanc exhibits aromas of waxy pear, white flowers, grapefruit zest and Sauvignon botanicals, followed by a medium to full-bodied, tangy and incisive palate with a delicately textural attack, fine concentration at the core and a long, saline finish. This is a racier, more tightly wound white Bordeaux that should drink well for a decade.
Informazioni sul produttore
Ch. Olivier is one of the few actual castles in Bordeaux – coming with a moat and drawbridge. Since Alexandre de Bethmann took over here in 2012, the château has been given a new lease of life, with quality on the rise.
