Fresh and fruity with a ripe, creamy array of citrus and tropical fruit. Plenty of mango and chopped-apple character. Juicy and flavorful with a medium to full body. - James Suckling.
Gorgeous nose, so clean, fresh and alive. Well delivered on the palate with punch and presence. Yellow plum, pineapple, apricot and peach all combine on the palate giving a full mouthfeel but no excessive weight in the mouth. Sharp, bright, bold but also fun, this has excellent precision and drive from start to finish. A knockout La Louvière this year by winemaker Jacques Lurton and his team. Totally yummy and a real success. Tasted twice. - Georgina Hindle, Decanter.
The 2021 La Louvière Blanc exhibits attractive aromas of confit citrus, pear, white flowers, citrus zest and pastry cream, followed by a medium-bodied, taut and chiseled palate, concluding with a long finish. It's another fine success in a strong vintage for white Bordeaux. - William Kelly, Wine Advocate.
This has plenty of punch, with sculpted savoury fruits, enjoyable and balanced, white pear, great texture plenty of mouthwatering acidity that reflects the character of the vintage but with grip and nuance. - Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux.
The 2021 La Louvière Blanc has a well-defined bouquet of apricot blossom, quince and crushed stone. The palate is medium-bodied with fine mineralité and lovely bitterness. Quite persistent in the mouth with a lingering finish. This is one of the best whites from La Louvière that I have encountered. - Neal Martin, Vinous Media.
