A blend of 65% Sauvignon Blanc and 35% Semillon aging in French oak barriques, 8% new, the 2019 Blanc is all limes and lemons to begin, soon opening out to reveal nuances of peach blossoms, wet pebbles, green apples and struck match with a touch of coriander seed. Medium to full-bodied, the palate bursts with citrusy flavors, possessing impressive weight and creamy texture, finishing with loads of mineral layers and bags of freshness. Score: 92 - 94 Lisa Perotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate 03 June 2020 |

The 2019 Cos d'Estournel Blanc is a wine of real breadth, texture and resonance. Lemon peel white flowers, mint, sage and white pepper give the 2019 striking aromatic top notes and a real feeling of brilliance to complement the natural richness of the 35% Sémillon in this year's blend. Exotic tropical accents add a good bit of vintage 2019 character. Score: 92 - 94 Antonio Galloni, Vinous.com 01 June 2020 |

The 2019 Cos d'Estournel Blanc, picked 16-23 September and seeing just 8% new oak, has more vibrancy and tension on the nose compared to the Pagodes de Clos Blanc, scents of orange blossom and yellow plums, the Sémillon very expressive. The palate is sharp and racy on the entry with green apple, melon, passion fruit and a slight tang of pink grapefruit towards the finish. Moderate length. Give it two or three years in bottle. Score: 91 - 93 Neal Martin, Vinous.com Maturity: 2024 - 2035 01 June 2020 |
