Delivery until Fall 2027!

Full of character, intense, grippy, green apple, white pear, white peach, unripe mango, sage and saffron and just so juicy on the finish. Great potential, clear ageing ability, fragrant and confident. Harvest 4 to 19 September. 33% new oak.

(Pessac-Léognan; 75% Sauvignon Blanc; 25% Sémillon; a final yield of 48 hl/ha; pH 3.13; 12.8% alcohol; tasted twice, first at the UGC press tasting at the Cité du Vin). This is lovely. Distinctive, aromatically, with white flowers, nectarine, pear and white melon flesh accompanied by pink grapefruit, blood orange, orange blossom and honeysuckle. There’s a little note of blanched almond and also the creaminess that comes with that. Fine and delicate in the mouth, with a layered sapid freshness but also plenty of density and viscosity (if not that of some recent vintages), rendering this highly tactile and all the more engaging for that. Taut and tense, racy and vibrant.

After a little shaking, notes of fresh pears, lemon pie, and lime blossoms slowly emerge from the glass, leading to touches of coriander seed and wet pebbles. The light-bodied palate is tightly wound and intense with mineral and citrus layers giving way to a long, chalky finish. Classic great, age-worthy DDC Blanc!
