2023 Chateau de Fieuzal Blanc Pessac-Leognan

The 2023 Blanc from de Fieuzal is another superb rendition at this address, revealing a complex and attractive bouquet of pear, white peach, spring flowers and confit citrus. Medium- to full-bodied, enveloping and fleshy, it is built around a generous core of fruit framed by racy acidity and a crystalline texture, concluding with a long, perfumed and saline finish. ~95 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

A brilliant, impeccably made Pessac, the 2023 Château De Fieuzal Blanc is based on 60% Sauvignon and 40% Semillon and offers beautiful notes of ripe citrus, lime, crushed stone, and minty flowers. Medium-bodied, fresh, focused, and elegant on the palate, it has integrated acidity and a great finish. This is one classic white that does everything right! It will keep for 15 years in cold cellars. Drink 2026-2041. ~95 Jeb Dunnuck

Great aromatics, vanilla, lemon verbena, caramel and peach - even a touch of pineapple. Clean and lively, great energy with a soft lemon and creamy peach core, ending floral and stony. I like this, plenty of easy flavour with a long finish. ~94 Decanter

Notes of sliced pears, green apples, quince and lemon blossoms come through clearly, with a medium body and lemon drop, dried apple, lime and crushed stone undertones. Drink or hold. ~93 James Suckling

The wine is rounded, with ripe tropical fruits mingled with kiwi. Its grapefruit aroma and touch of spice from the wood aging are refreshing and perfumed. Abeille (the bee) is Château de Fieuzal's second brand. Drink the wine from later this year. ~ 91 Wine Enthusiast
