Wine Advocate 86-88 / 100 byNeal Martinthe5/2/2017 The Chateau Couhins 2016 Blanc has a perfumed white peach and nectarine scented bouquet that is very pretty. The palate is quite sweet on the entry with candied orange peel, apricot and light peachy aromas. It might lack tension on the finish, but I appreciate the balance here. It will be drinking as soon as it is bottled.
Jean-Marc QUARIN 15 / 20 byJean-Marc Quarinthe4/28/2017 Couleur pâle. Nez fruité, pur et vif. Notes de pêche et de poire. Vin délicieux et plus suave (moins vif) que de coutume. Finale parfumée, puissance moyenne.
Jancis Robinson 17 / 20 byJancis Robinsonthe4/25/2017 Sweet nose and a strong green streak. Lots of life and vivacity. Solid and well balanced. A good effort. Dry and with lots of green acidity but no extraneous elements. Impressive length. Drink 2019-2024
Wine Enthusiast 90-92 / 100 byRoger Vossthe4/19/2017 Barrel Sample. This soft, light wine is likely to be attractively drinkable by 2020. It's a forward, fruity wine, with final touches of citrus and spice.
Jamessuckling.com 90-91 / 100 byJames Sucklingthe4/5/2017 Lots of sliced-green-apple, pear and lemon character. Medium to full body. Layered and fresh. Like it.
