The 2021 Blanc is turning out beautifully, evoking aromas of mint, spices, peach, lemon oil and spring flowers. Medium to full-bodied and perfectly balanced, it’s tense and fleshy, crystalline and seamless, with a fresh, saline and pure finish. It feels reassuringly persistent and could age well over the next two decades. This outstanding wine is crafted from 60% Sauvignon Blanc and 40% Sémillon.

Based on a 60/40 split of Sauvignon and Sémillon, the 2021 Château De Fieuzal Blanc has terrific honeyed citrus, mint, floral, and subtle herbal notes in a medium-bodied, balanced, elegant, yet nicely concentrated package. It's another beautiful white in the vintage that will evolve for at least a decade.

Pretty nose of gooseberries, sliced apples, lime curd and nutmeg. Touch of jackfruit. Fresh, bright and balanced with a medium body and delicious layers of fruit, spice and minerals. Drink now or hold.

Excellent quality in bottle as it was En Primeur, showing grip and lift without sacrificing fleshy fruit and poised, carved green apple, pear and stone fruit character with salted caramel and toasted cracker on the signoff. Easy to recommend. Bottled under Diam cork.

After a couple of swirls, the 2021 de Fieuzal Blanc erupts from the glass with energetic notes of lime leaves, green apples, and fresh pears followed by hints of coriander seed and chalk dust. The light-bodied palate has a quiet intensity of youthful citrus and apple flavors supported by a racy backbone, finishing long and chalky.

A lovely intense florality on the nose. Crunchy green apple and bright zesty lime on the palate with elements of brioche and lemon meringue pie. Supple and taut with both sweet and sour elements - the fruit and acidity really to the fore, but well packaged with excellent energy and overall structure. This is shaping up nicely, showing lots of promise with crispness and a salty touch to the finish.
