Expert Reviews
This is the 2019, not the 2018, but I am including it because it is worth getting hold of while fresh, fragrant and sappy, as this is in abundance. From a family estate up near the widening of the Médoc Estuary, all grapes are hand harvested. Always a reductive opening to this wine, and you get it again here, making a salty, tangy lemon peel and white peach opener alongside touches of cold ash and gunsmoke, just a great glass of white wine that is quite unusual in shape for a Bordeaux white, and always worth looking out for.
The 2019 Poitevin is performing better than it did when I tasted it earlier this year, when I suspect it was still shut down after bottling. Opening in the glass with attractive aromas of orange zest, sweet red berries, petals and spices, it's medium-bodied, lively and elegant, with lovely purity of fruit and nicely integrated structure.
