Pessac-Leognan
|
Sauvignon Blanc
|
|
Bright, pale yellow. Musky aromas of yellow plum, ginger and quinine, with a light resiny nuance. Fat, broad and sweet, but with lovely acidity and lift to leaven its plump, mouthfilling richness. I picked up a superripe suggestion of banana as well as a glyceral, honeyed, waxy semillon character but this highly complex wine boasts terrific verve and finishes with real grip and length. The 2005, which I rated 91 points in March, is fuller and more exotic but this may ultimately offer a better combination of power and freshness.
