Note di degustazione
The 2005 Bouscaut Blanc is a very pretty wine. It has also aged better than the red. Orange peel, chamomile, dried flowers and sage all meld together in the glass. Mid-weight and creamy, with lovely textural complexity from bottle age, the 2005 has aged nicely. I wouldn’t push my luck aging it, but the 2005 is a total delight.

Tasted blind at the 2005 Southwold tasting, the 2005 Bouscaut Blanc is a gem. It has a clean and fresh bouquet with lifted yellow plum, candlewax and dried honey scents. The palate is fresh on the entry with crisp acidity and bright citrus fruit married with an almost viscous, lightly honeyed finish. This dry white Bordeaux sports excellent tension and superb length. It is the kind of white Bordeaux that makes you wonder why you spend all that money on more famous names. Tasted February 2017.
