Château Coustolle – Surprise Blanche 2018 – Bordeaux Blanc

The nose is fruity, fresh and offers a fine power. It reveals notes of fresh/ripe quince, small fresh/juicy yellow fruits, small notes of lemon associated with fine touches of mandarine zests as well as discreet hints of fresh verbena, iode and an imperceptible hint of toasted almond. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, well-built and offers freshness, a good definition, precision, a beautiful suavity as well as a fine acidulous frame and sapidity. On the palate this wine expresses notes of ripe/juicy quince, small yellow fruits, small notes of fleshy/juicy yellow peach associated with touches of lemon, zests as well as a subtle hint of lychee, a discreet hint of pear flowers and an imperceptible hint of toasted/almond (in the background). Good length.
