Green apple, nettle, gooseberry, and mango, with a crisp, chalky texture and a tingle of white pepper on the persistent finish. At this stage it is more about the Sauvignon Blanc than the Semillon in the blend, but that will naturally change as the wine evolves. (NT 07/06/20)

Jane Anson
A lovely Fieuzal white, full of creamy nectarine fruit and gentle spicy notes with grip and lift on the finish. Has depth and concentration and plenty of Pessac quality that lifts these whites far above the Bordeaux average. 93 points

The de Fieuzal 2019 Blanc slowly unfurls to reveal beguiling scents of orange blossoms, candied lemon peel and fresh ginger over a core of Bosc pears and white peaches. Medium-bodied, the palate has beautiful harmony with relatively soft acidity and a compelling gingery kick on the finish. 92-94 points

The 2019 de Fieuzal Blanc is missing just a little race and tension on the nose, though it does offer attractive light honey and acacia aromas. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity. Overall I seek more mineralité and personality, especially on the finish. 88-90 points
