A promising first vintage for this exciting new project. First year production of planted Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon inside St-Estèphe, replacing Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon across 4ha (80% Sauvignon Blanc and 20% Sémillon in the vineyard). Green apples with quite crisp Sauvignon Blanc aromas, grassy and slightly herbal. Clean and pure on the palate, not overly zingy as the acidity is in perfect balance with the green orchard fruit - very slightly tart but really cool with a chalky, stony grip on the finish. Harmonious with some peach and pear drop florality elements too. Fine, elegant and not oaky with immediate enjoyment - a fresh, friendly summer sipper with no big pronouncement of any one element. 3.16pH. 30% fermenting in barrel (no new oak), 30% in vats, 30% in amphora. Picked just before the rain on 30% clay and limestone, cooler terroir. Bottled 7th April.
