Chantegrive Cuvee Caroline 2018 (750ML)

92-93 JS / 92 DE / 89-91 WA

This is a pretty white with sliced-pear and pineapple character. Bright and lively acidity backs up the ripe fruit. - James Suckling

This is delicious and easily one of the best of the Graves whites. It has a clear juiciness to it, and a stone fruit lusciousness with good persistency making you want to pour yourself a large glass - a good success in the vintage. This is the first vintage for the new, 24-year-old cellar master Aude Dupuy, and bodes extremely well. Barrel ageing on the lees. 50% new oak was used. - Decanter

The 2018 Cuvee Caroline offers up intense lime juice, grapefruit and shaved almond scents with hints of yuzu and fresh pineapple. The palate is medium-bodied with a lovely line of freshness driving the citrus and tropical flavors to a long finish. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Advocate
