Chateau La Louviere Blanc 2023

James Suckling: "Serious density to this with phenolic framing, yet it’s agile and vivid with sliced-apple, lemon and mineral character. Flavorful finish. Tight and composed."

Decanter: "Chamomile, herbal, with lime aspects. A smooth, even creamy, palate with breadth and energy as well, showing off white peach and clementine orange, with agreeable toasty oak accents (the wine is ageing in 30% new oak barrels of 500 litres). Long finish, frank and a bit tart, but in a nice way. Ageing will make this a sure winner and the wine has the needed acidity and dry extract for more long-term keeping."

Lisa Perrotti-Brown: "The white La Louviere 2023 rockets out with notes of key lime pie, fresh pineapple, and sliced apples, followed by touches of coriander seed and wet slate. Medium-bodied, the palate is tightly wound, with great tension and loads of mineral sparks, finishing on a lingering chalky note."
