As you may have guessed, this is another one from the Despagne family, a top-flight dry white exhibiting oodles of lemon twist and citrus oil in a medium-bodied, crisp, refreshing style. Anticipated maturity: now.

Light, fruity, elegant, a delicious wine that combines very fresh fruits with some softness, restraint almost. It shows green pea, kiwi and a tight, mineral streak of acidity. On top are crisp citrus and white currant flavors. Drink this summer or next.——R.V.(7/1/2009)—— 90

Emphasizing the herbaceous side of white Bordeaux, despite its weight, this wine plays a fine line between richness and freshness. The power is there, almost too much initially with some alcohol burn. But then the crisp, green and white fruits come in, giving a poised, vibrant lift.——R.V.(7/1/2009)—— 88

This shows considerable wood flavors, giving a smooth, creamy character, spiced with some toast and ripe, dense Semillon. It’s big, a definite food wine, showing great style and quality above its simple Bordeaux appellation station.——R.V.(11/1/2007)—— 90
