Tasting Notes and Scores

90-92 RP

Because of both time and space constraints, I am not able to provide tasting notes for the 2009 dry white Bordeaux, but it is an extremely strong vintage. Most châteaux equaled the dazzling quality of the 2007 dry whites. That said, the 2009s tend to be less
classic than 2007, but more exotic, honeyed, and higher in alcohol, with compelling richness. The 2009s will probably have a shorter evolutionary curve, but these wines tend to last a long time, even in a vintage such as this. They are fascinating dry white wines.

Tasted at the Union de Grand Cru in London. The nose is certainly lacking fruit concentration and seems bland compared to Malartic-Lagraviere. The palate is better with some light honeyed tones, but the finish lacks definition and tension. I would like to re-taste this at a later juncture. Tasted October 2011.
