| Notes | The winemaker Matthieu says this is the best vintage ever made at the Delaporte winery. Talk about bragging rights! This is a brilliant producer who consistently makes delicious wine year after year. "This bristles with flint, chive and gooseberry notes, with a rapier finish. Pure and mouthwatering." (Wine Spectator) "Light peach and flint nose with a touch of polished lemon. Great delicacy evident from the kumquat, rose water and lychee on the palate, backed up by biting minerality. A warm, inviting style." (Decanter Magazine) Decanter: 93 points | |||
