2016 Pape Clement Pessac Leognan Blanc
BORDEAUX 2016 BLANC 2
Bear in mind these wines are still 4 months away from being bottled, so you need to have a bit of imagination and past Bordeaux drinking experience towards the content.
Nose was atypical to start with; fruity, sharp & acidic. I was puzzled why the palate wasn't showing too well? With light, very muted and not expressive content, it was like totally shut down and required years to grow up and mature. I later found that the blend of 55% Sav Blanc and 45% Semillon was probably the key.
