Score 91/100 · Drink 2019-2029, William Kelley, Wine Advocate, Oct 2022

In addition to their red wines, Fonréaud also produced this blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon and Muscadelle that frequently numbers among the Médoc's finest white wines. The 2017 Le Cygne de Fonréaud is an especially good vintage of this bottling, exhibiting aromas of crisp stone fruits, custard apple and pastry cream, followed by a medium to full-bodied, rich and layered palate, conceding with a bright, grapefruit-inflected finish.

Attractive lemon curd, fresh white peaches and some biscuity nuances, leading to a palate that has a smooth, supple and fresh array of citrus and peach flavors. A blend of 60% sauvignon blanc, 25% semillon and 15% muscadelle. Drink now.
