Vins Blancs
176 Château Brown Blanc, Pessac‑Léognan “Bright and punchy, with a burst of lemon peel, honeysuckle and verbena that streaks through, backed by hints of clementine and elderflower honey. Delicious and distinctive. Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon. Drink now through 2028.” 92 pts, James Molesworth, Wine Spectator 249613 $80 177 Château Carbonnieux Blanc, Pessac‑Léognan “A blend of 60% Sauvignon Blanc and 40% Sémillon, the 2022 Carbonnieux Blanc evokes notes of boxwood, white flowers, spices, confit citrus and pear mingled with dominant Sauvignon Blanc-inflected notes. Medium to full-bodied, incisive and layered, it’s deeper than the 2021, with a round, enrobing palate, bright acids and a long, penetrating and mouthwatering finish…” 93 pts, Yohan Castaing, Wine Advocate 249618 $90 178 Clos Floridène Blanc, Graves (L) “The 2022 Clos Floridène Blanc is an airy, gracious white from the Dubourdieu family. Lemon peel, flowers, chalk and mint are some of the many that take shape in this charming, utterly delicious white.” 91 pts, Antonio Galloni, Vinous 249587 4 bottle limit $60
