Château Monbousquet 2020 – Bordeaux Blanc

The nose is fruity and offers a certain freshness, a nice definition, a very fine power as well as a certain richness in finesse. It reveals notes of ripe lemon, quince, small notes of fleshy apple associated with small touches of kumquat, pepper, fine hints of fresh zests, a discreet hint of exotic/lychee fruits, fresh flower as well as an imperceptible hint of varietal and a very discreet hint of saline. The mouth is fruity, balanced, all in precision and offers juiciness, suavity, freshness, a good definition, a certain gourmandize, an acidulous frame, subtilty, tension, racy minerality, a nice finesse of the grain as well as an aerial character (in the balances). On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy/fresh lemon, fresh/juicy nectarine, small notes of juicy mandarin associated with touches of fresh pineapple, fresh lychee as well as a discreet hint of Quenette, a very discreet hint of white flower/lemon flower and an imperceptible hint of vervain. Good length.
