A blend of 87% Sémillon and 13% Sauvignon Blanc, the 2022 Château Rahoul Blanc exhibits melon, pineapple, and minty herbs on the nose. Lively and fresh, with a focused, balanced, medium-bodied profile, it should drink well for 7-8 years. Total production: 4,166 cases.
The 2022 Rahoul Blanc, mainly Sémillon (87%), has an attractive nose with lemon thyme, lime, grapefruit and light yellow flower scents. The palate is well-balanced with a lovely, lilting entry, very expressive with yellow plum, peach and a touch of nutmeg and white pepper on the finish. This is well worth hunting down. Excellent.
Crips lemons and tart green apples with florality makes this sweet, fruity, creamy, citrus wine a pleasure to enjoy in its youth.
