Grapey with black licorice and mineral character. Medium-bodied, with well-integrated tannins and a medium long finish. Well done for the vintage.
Wine Spectator (3 April 2003) - 89-91
The Château Tour Léognan White is a wine for pleasure, a blend characterized by the Sauvignon which confers on it a dynamic blend of citrus notes and a full and elegant palate, all well balanced by the round, rich texture of the Semillon.
“A wine close to perfection” ; “Charmail is definitely one of the Haut Medoc stars” ; “One of the most consistent Crus Bourgeois in the last 10-15 years”
The Claret wine of Château La Bretonnière has the body of a light red primeur wine and the fruity aroma of a rosé. The nose is very intense with fine red fruit aromas (blackcurrant, blackberry, raspberry…). Well balanced, this wine has a good weight with a lot of red fruit flavours and a long finish.
Caution: very soiled labels !
Fresh yet smoky pear and nut aroma. A medium bodied refined style. Slightly creamy texture with a finely woven array of fresh fruits.
