Château Prieuré-Les-Tours
Cuvée Clara Graves White Bordeaux Blend
Graves, Bordeaux, France
Haven’t had a bottle of this solid weeknight white in over a year. It’s still delicious. It’s got the telltale characteristics of Semillon on the nose, with sultry pear skin and lanolin scents. Still nice freshness apparent. Bone dry and relatively full in the mouth. Loads of deep-toned cracked rock minerality and some subtle pear fruit. Very little Sauvignon character here. I wonder what the blend is.

Jun 14th, 2023Surprisingly good for such a modestly-priced wine. Lanolin, butter,, and green fruits on the nose, with a hint of vanilla. Very much Semillon influenced on the palate, with waxy notes and a long finish. Great balance. ,
