Château Malartic Lagravière Blanc | Pessac Léognan
White wine | France, BORDEAUX | 2021
The style here in 2021 is very
reserved, with finely crushed
saline minerals complemented
by layers of desiccated white
peach, chamomile and verbena. This is matched by a supple and
gently polished texture at the
start, medium-bodied, with veins
of bitter citrus pith, lightly bitter
phenolics, and fabulously driven
acidity. This is just delicious, with a
saline and mouthwatering attack,
and it displays great potential for
development.
