Domaine de la Solitude Domaine de la Solitude Pessac-Léognan Blanc 2023 750ml

Stone fruits, white peach, orange blossom, and a beautiful sense of minerality all emerge from the 2023 Domaine De La Solitude (Pessac-Léognan) Blanc. I love its richness, and it's medium to full-bodied, rich, round, and layered, with remarkable density and depth while staying lively, balanced, and vibrant. It will shine for 15 years if well stored. Drink 2026-2040.

The 2023 Domaine de la Solitude Blanc has a cohesive and focused bouquet with green apple, kiwi fruit and light, pithy pear aromas that are neatly knitted together by the oak. The palate is a more textural white. One bottle was oxidized at a négociant tasting, but another was perfectly fine, with a keen line of acidity, vibrant and fresh with a dab of ginger toward the finish. That's more like it!
