Anmeldelser af Château Magrez Fombrauge Blanc Bordeaux 2018

92-93/100 Vert de Vin Magazine
“The nose is fresh, fruity and offers a fine intensity. There are notes of fresh lemon, fresh white fruits and small notes of fresh quince associated with fine touches of white flowers and very discreet hints of lemon blossom. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, a bit retained and offers a beautiful suavity / juiciness, tension, fat, freshness, roundness, a good definition, a beautiful finesse of the grain as well as fine acidulous frame. On the palate this wine expresses notes of ripe lemon, juicy peach, juicy pear and small notes of litchi associated with a hint of quince as well as discreet hints of exotic fruit / pineapple. Good length.”

91-93/100 Robert Parker
"The 2018 Magrez Fombrauge Blanc is a little subdued on first sniff, opening out to apple tart, ripe pears and nectarine notions plus wafts of coriander seed and waxed lemons. Medium-bodied, the palate has bags of zippy stone fruit and apple layers with a spicy undercurrent and long, refreshing finish."

92/100 James Suckling
“Green apple, lemon zest, lime blossom and a touch of honey on the nose. It’s medium-bodied with bright, tangy acidity. Layered with delicate precision and a tight, mineral finish.”

92/100 Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider
“The wine kicks off with a jolt of juicy lemon, white peach, vanilla and flowers. Lush, round and forward, the finish is all about its creamy lemon and green apple character

90-92/100 Antonio Galloni
“The 2018 Magrez-Fombrauge Blanc is a bold, punchy white. Citrus peel, white flowers, mint and subtle earthy notes add character. In 2018, the Blanc retains a good bit of energy to play off the natural intensity and size of the vintage. The Blanc is an especially structured wine with a real sense of phenolic intensity, rather than an easygoing white. The blend is 40% Sémillon, 30% Sauvignon Blanc and 30% Sauvignon Gris.”

91/100 Jeb Dunnuck
“Lots of pretty pineapple, honeyed lemon, subtle almond, and white flower notes all emerge from the 2018 Château Magrez Fombrauge Blanc. Medium-bodied, it has a pure, balanced texture, moderate acidity, and a solid sense of minerality on the finish. This is a solid, impeccably made white that's going to shine for 4-5 years.”
