Loudenne Les Roses White 2017
"THERE IS NO GREAT TERROIR THAT DOES NOT LOOK AT THE RIVER"
Like the greatest Médoc wines, Château LOUDENNE's vineyard benefits from an exceptional terroir located on the edge of the Gironde estuary which, like a mirror, reflects the sun's rays, reduces the risk of frost and promotes the ripening of the grapes. This privileged location gives the wines of LOUDENNE elegance, complexity and finesse.

Tasting
Pale golden yellow color. Powerful, fruity and delicate nose with at first fresh citrus fragrances followed by white peach flavors and fresh pears.
In the mouth it is balanced in between roundness and freshness.
It reveals complex and delicate flavors : fine lemon on the attack, followed by crunchy apple and fresh pear and at the end slight oak and iodine notes.
Long finish.
