Château Fonréaud – Le Cygne 2019 – Bordeaux Blanc

The nose is fresh, fruity, elegant, racy and offers a certain small intensity. It reveals notes of pulpy nectarine, crushed vine peach and lychee associated with small touches of lemon flowers, peach flowers, bright raisin as well as discreet hints of vanilla flowers and a subtle hint of sweet spices (in the background). The palate is fruity, elegant, beautifully defined and offers gourmandize, finesse, straightness, a beautiful finesse of the grain, a fine controlled richness. On the palate this wine expresses notes of quenette, crushed lychee and small notes of fleshy apple associated with touches of kumquat, mandarine zests as well as a subtle hint of carambola, discreet hints of minerality and white flowers/peach flowers. Good length. A beautiful suave and sapid persistence.
