DECANTER: "Generous and weighty, lovely density and honey aspects. Chalky tannins, a bit of peach flesh, some orange, some green apple but this is calm and so relaxed. Really approachable with such a generous but charming weight and tone of flavour. Mouthwatering, bright and clean. Really incredibly drinkable. Chalky on the finish with a slight hint of orange and grapefruit bitterness. Fat comes from the concentration - great balance of sapidity, acidity and fruit. 3.1pH. Yield of 28hl/ha."

FALSTAFF: "Helles Gelbgrün, silberfarbene Reflexe. Verhalten, zarte Wiesenkräuter, weißer Apfel, ein Hauch von Stachelbeeren, dezentes Bukett. Mittlerer Körper, zarte Fruchtsüße, ein Hauch von Kernobst, balanciert, weiße Frucht im Abgang, ein feiner Speisenbegleiter."

LISA PERROTTI-BROWN: "The 2023 Le Blanc d'Aiguilhe, 100% Sauvignon Blanc, races out with notes of green apples, fresh crunchy pears, and lemon drops with hints of elderflower and wet pebbles. The light to medium-bodied palate is crisp and pure, with vibrant citrus layers and a steely finish."

THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER: "Yellow tropical fruits, white peach, flowers, and orange rind notes pop in the crisp, sweet, and juicy, chalky wine. The wine is produced from 100% Sauvignon Blanc. You can enjoy this with pleasure on release. Drink from 2025-2030."

JEB DUNNUCK: "The 2023 Chateau D'Aiguilhe Blanc is more citrus and pineapple-driven, with a bright, bracing style in its minerality and minty herbs and spicy nuances. It's medium-bodied, focused, chiseled, and has Riesling-like mineral character while still bringing rock-solid depth of fruit and texture."

THE WINE ADVOCATE: "Already bottled, the 2023 d'Aiguilhe Blanc, a 100% Sauvignon Blanc, offers up aromas of pear, spring flowers, citrus zest and lemon. Fresh and juicy, it’s moderately weighted, fresh and lively with a mouthwatering, saline finish."
