This was the first wine that we tasted after our tour of the vineyard at Château Pape Clément. It was our first full day of the 2023 Bordeaux visit. Despite being quite early in the day, it was getting quite warm and a refreshing glass of white wine was just what I wanted.

It was a little tricky to pick out some of the aromas from the wine as it was light in intensity. Tasting-wise though, it had quite a nice finish to it that lasted well. Very pleasing.
