Oakier and toastier than expected, the 2022 Bouscaut Blanc reveals aromas of spices, confit citrus and menthol. Medium to full-bodied, round and enrobing, it has a fleshy core of fruit, great depth at the core and a long, slightly bitter aftertaste.

The 2022 Château Bouscaut Blanc delivers melon rind, cantaloupe, and sappy floral notes. Medium-bodied, juicy, and nicely balanced, it’s another pure, elegant, and well-made white.

Fleshy and concentrated, white peach and spiced pear laced with fragrant pepper, green mango, with character and kick. Enjoyable, has more weight that in cooler vintages, which gives it a particular style to be aware of, but good quality, and will continue to deliver for the next decade. Coglombes family owners.

Aromas of smoke and gooseberries with subtle hints of meringue, lemon curd, passion fruit and pastry. Tight and tense on the palate, with a medium to full body and a fine, phenolic structure adding a bit more weight and texture. Long and lively finish. Drink or hold.

The 2022 Bouscaut Blanc is creamy and understated. Apricot, passion fruit, pineapple and exotic floral top notes fill out the layers. The 2022 offers lovely depth and yet remains light on its feet.

Clean and crisp, a shot of bright lemon and lime with bitter grapefruit and orange touches that give spice and nuance to the palate. Maintains balance and direction, nicely textured and weighted with richness and creaminess underpinned by sharp acidity. Lovely construction, keeping a zesty vibrant expression to a long finish with persistence. Appealing juiciness and soft sweetness initially which is so moreish. Tasted twice.

Un nez délicat et d’une grande personnalité (miel, agrumes, tilleul, amande) avec impact du sémillon dans la construction de bouche. Du gras, de la sève, des arômes fumés et de fruits mûrs, une petite touche d’amertume équilibrante et une bonne allonge. Beaucoup de caractère.

The 2022 Château Bouscaut Blanc is an exotic, tropical, perfumed, flora and citrus-driven white offering medium-bodied richness, a nicely balanced, textured mouthfeel, and outstanding length. It brings plenty of richness, yet it shows more and more freshness and vibrancy with time in the glass. It's a seriously good white from this château.

The 2022 Bouscaut Blanc opens with scents of white peaches, green guava, and lime blossoms, plus suggestions of oyster shell and wild thyme. The medium-bodied palate has lovely tension and nice crunchy apple and tropical fruit flavors with a chalky finish.

Layers of creamy, guavas, grapefruit, pineapple, flowers, and lemons are all over the nose, and palate here. The finish adds pink grapefruit, and peach notes to the sweet, fruity finish. The wine is a blend of 70% Sauvignon Blanc and 30% Semillon. 13.6% ABV. Drink from 2024-2030.

This estate always produces fleshy and textural white wines. The 2022 Bouscaut Blanc reveals aromas of white fruit, lime blossom and spring flowers with elegant exotic accents. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and seamless, it’s generous and fresh with a mineral-driven finish. A great effort, it’s a blend of 70% Sauvignon and 30% Sémillon.
