The 2022 Chaleur Blanc is bright, energetic and, on its release date, possesses wonderful tension. More prominent than recent vintages, classic Sauvignon Blanc notes of gooseberry lead on the nose, followed by whiffs of green apple, apricot and white flowers. The palate has flavors of lemon brioche and peach-infused mascarpone, buttressed with flinty, mineral qualities. The finish is round and defined by its length and enticing freshness.

87 | Almond like aroma, BF or oxidation? Lean, nervy and arguably lacks fruit, but is lean nervy and minerally. Very dry finish.

86 | watery palate, where is the acid? nice creamy finish

88 | Nose has a hot milk/custard powder quality that detracts from the purity? Palate is better - there is some smoky, sweet spice flavours that add complexity. Though texture is a wee bit soupy.

96 | This wine has beautiful flow. Gorgeous waxy tones. Lingering red apple flavours on the close.
