A beautiful Pessac white with sliced green mango, lemon curd and light grapefruit. Medium body. Bright and flavorful. Well done.
Jane Anson: 92/100
Grilled white peach, edges of gunsmoke, good weight and depth through the palate, this builds slowly but surely and delivers exceptional personality and grip.

The 2023 Clos Marsalette Blanc reveals vibrant notes of lime cordial, fresh grapefruit, and lemongrass with touches of orange blossom and beeswax. The light-bodied palate is so delicate, intense, and racy, with lingering citrus and chalk layers on the long finish.
