Ch Lafleur, Les Champs Libres 2021 Bordeaux
16 ++
100% Sauvignon Blanc. Cask sample.
Very, very backward but clearly huge potential. Still has the fermentation notes of apple and patisserie. Oak present on the palate but an intensity of fruit as well. Lively acidity and bone-dry finish. All the elements but a bit disjoined at present. Looks to be for the long haul. (JL)
