Tasting Notes

The 2013 Les Champs Libres was a little gem out of barrel and now in bottle it is beginning to fulfill its potential. It has a gorgeous apricot blossom and peachy bouquet that is very well defined with a smudge of melted wax developing in the glass. The palate is well balanced and texturally feels rounded in the mouth, adorned with subtle tropical notes, a slither of lemon peel leading to a tensile and vibrant finish. This is an excellent white from the Guinaudeau family of Lafleur fame.
