    Description

    92/100 pts VINOUSThe 2020 Clos Marsalette Blanc is brilliant and concentrated, with lovely depth and balance. Mandarin peel, chamomile, apricot, and light tropical notes enhance this blend of 60% Sauvignon Blanc and 40% Sémillon. It is an unusually deep and textured white wine. ” Neal Martin.

    3,000 bottles of this vintage were produced.

    The Clos Marsalette estate is located in Martillac in the Pessac-Léognan region. The vineyard is divided into 5.46 hectares of red grape varieties and 0.80 hectares of white grape varieties.
