This wine with its gun-flint aromas and spicy bouquet is subtly wooded, rich in fruit, full-bodied, well balanced, and very reminiscent of the Sauvignon flower and grape. The richness and intensity of the flavor linger long and harmoniously on the palate. This prestigious selection has excellent bottle maturation potential and will continue to evolve for 10 to 12 years.
"La Bourgeoise" is an excellent companion to lighly spiced meals and fish dishes, such as John Dory roasted with fennel. A well-aged bottle of "La Bourgeoise" will be a perfect match with a farm hen in truffle sauce.
Wine Spectator

Concentrated and harmonious, with melon, nectarine, gooseberry and lemon curd layered with green herbs and an intense salty spine. A subtle hint of honey adds richness, and a toasted almond note rounds out the lengthy finish. Delicious. Drink now through 2028. 3,500 cases made, 400 cases imported.
Wine Enthusiast

This wine is rich, generous with both acidity and white fruits. Laced through all this, a citrus streak brings intense freshness that suggests the wine needs to age. Drink from 2024.
