Domaine De Chevalier,
For laying down,
A blend of 75 percent Sauvignon Blanc and 25 percent Sémillon, this has a tightly wound nose with notes of citrus, white stone-fruit, lemon pith and a hint of anise. Very compact and alluring with a lovely mouth-feel, this coats the mid-palate with peach and spice. Great acidity and really persistent, this is very good, precise and alive with great nervous tension overlying tightly packed fruit. Bravo.

Chateau La Garde,
For laying down,
2017 has delivered some really impressive dry whites and here is one classic example. A lovely lemony personality with Sauvignon Blanc dominating the blend, the nose offers aromas of green apple, lemon zest and gooseberry. There is blanched almond on the palate and little texture which balances beautifully with the underlying zip and tension. Clean and refreshing, this is a delightful bottling which will make for a fine aperitif and will well accompany other summer-food fare.

Chateau La Mission-Haut-Brion,
For laying down,
Complex and layered on the nose as one would expect from such a high-class wine. The Sémillon shines through with hits of white peach, citrus and orange blossom, intertwined with a mineral purity. The palate is focused and precise with a beautiful texture – almost oily – and mouth feel. This is very concentrated yet elegant, and long with a fresh, mineral finish.

Chateau Malartic-Lagraviere,
For laying down,
The evocative name of ‘Lagravière’ underlines the great quality of the soils of this vineyard, reputed for its location on the finest gravel hillock in Léognan. This is a wine of exceptional elegance and finesse on the nose, a clear reflection of the vintage, displaying lovely citrus, pear and floral aromas reminiscent of orange blossom and a hint of camomile. The flavour profile is complex and multidimensional while vivid and lively. A lovely minerally laden palate with notes of lime zest and greengages along with delicate white fruit, are well supported by a creamy texture that carries through to a long finish.

Chateau Haut-Brion,
For laying down,
Essentially, a joint second wine of Haut-Brion Blanc and La Mission Haut-Brion Blanc, this is one of the best Clarté we’ve tried in recent years. The nose suggests wonderfully restrained depth, a tension and energy amongst the lime, grapefruit, orange peel and apricot, and just a hint of the oak beneath. Pear and apricot, a touch of fatness on the palate, but the acidity lends a beautiful energy and balance. Crushed stone minerality, apple, and just a touch of ginger spice linger on the moreish finish.

Chateau Pape Clement,
For laying down,
There is an attractive restraint about Ch. Pape Clément's white this year with pleasing notes of fresh lemon and citrus, white stone-fruit and peach. This is a blend of 55 percent Sauvignon Blanc and 45 percent Sémillon with 20 percent fermented in concrete eggs. The palate is fresh, clean and precise with oily acidity and a long, mineral finish.

Ch. Latour Martillac,
For laying down,
This has a delicate and fragrant nose, with a hint of reduction initially, opening up to reveal citrus and white stone fruits along with gun flint. The palate is fresh, clean – as with most 2017s – and linear but expressive with crisp, stone fruit dominating. A lovely creamy mouthfeel is balanced by a bright mineral finish. Totally drinkable.

Cos d'Estournel,
For laying down,
This is one of the crisper whites we tasted this vintage, with its layers of tropical and quince fruit kept nicely in check by a tight, fresh, green apple and grapefruit core, and a touch of minerality. A blend of 80 percent Sauvignon Blanc and 20 percent Sémillon, this Cos is both moreish and elegant, and has the complexity and structure to allow you to enjoy it over the next decade, possibly longer.

Chateau Talbot,
For laying down,
The Owners of Ch. Talbot were one of the first to plant white grapes in the Medoc in the 1930s. This is a classic Bordeaux blanc with concentrated flavours of nectarine, gooseberry and baked apples. Delicate oak treatment adds a creamy complexity to the wine and an oily texture from the Sémillon is balanced by the refreshing acidity leading to a very long length on the finish (70 percent Sauvignon Blanc, 30 percent Sémillon).
