Olivier Blanc 2022 (750ML)

94-95 JS / 93 JA / 93 DE /91-93 WI / 89-91 JD

Bright citrusy character here with some crushed stone minerality. Floral, too. Medium- to full-bodied with a lingering, chalky finish. - James Suckling

Pale green-gold, this is pretty subdued right now, a little careful in its aromatic delivery. As it relaxes in the glass, you find gunsmoke and citrus, clear slate texture, and an enjoyable kick of freshness. - Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux

Thrilling and lively, great acidity keeps the tension and focus on the bright lemon, lime, green apple, pear and apricot fruit with some hints of enjoyable bitterness and spice. Lean and sharp, but approachable and feels well worked. Juicy, succulent, mouthwatering, sweet and sharp. Lots going on here. Clean and clear - Georgina Hindle, Decanter

Under-ripe pineapple, persimmons, and lemon tart notes waft from the glass of the 2022 Olivier Blanc, followed by suggestions of lime leaves and sea spray. The medium-bodied palate is crisp and clean, with great intensity and an invigorating finish. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Independent

The 2022 Château Olivier Blanc is a bright, racy white offering notes of honeyed mint, crushed citrus, and white flowers. Medium-bodied, focused, and elegant on the palate, it plays in the elegant, moderately concentrated, yet balanced end of the spectrum and should keep for 3-5 years or so. - Jeb Dunnuck
