Chateau Tour Leognan 2023 Bordeaux Blanc 750ml

The 2023 Chateau Tour Leognan Blanc, hailing from the Pessac-Léognan appellation as the second wine of Cru Classé Château Carbonnieux, is a bright and aromatic Sauvignon Blanc-dominant blend that offers exceptional drinking pleasure. On the nose, it displays a vibrant melody of citrus fruits, primarily grapefruit and lime zest, with subtle floral undertones. The palate is fleshy and elegant, delivering a lively, fresh attack characterized by crisp acidity that is softened by the lusciousness of Sémillon. Well-balanced and charming, the wine features a subtle toasty, woody note from 6 months of barrel aging, adding depth to the fruit-forward profile. This is a "pure pleasure" wine designed to be enjoyed young, offering a dense, citrus-forward finish with hints of white peach.
