Château La Louvière has long been famous for its white wines. In fact, these already highly-prized by Canadian merchants in the 17th century ! A century later, they were to be found on the finest tables in Saint Petersburg.The very elegant white La Louvière is now among the finest dry white wines in the Graves, and is a fine ambassador for the Pessac-Léognan appellation. Marked by the Sauvignon Blanc varietal character, but not overly so, it can age remarkably well.
Full and Complex
Sauvignon 85% / Sémillon 15%.
Although the first half of the year was exceptionally hot, temperatures were lower than seasonal averages starting in July. In fact, this was the coolest summer since 1989. Summer sunshine was slightly less than usual. A drought set in at the beginning of September.
Wonderfully brilliant and translucent, pale yellow rimmed with green highlights.
Toasty notes from both the Graves terroir and the aging in oak. Intense yet elegant notes of lemon, tropical fruit, pineapple. Toasty, smoky aromas mingle with hyacinth and lime-blossom in a highly complex ensemble.
Smooth, rich, perfectly balanced, grapefruit, white peach and apricot notes, smoky oak, good freshness and excellent length. Serve with fish (grilled red mullet, roast turbot, lobster pie) or white meats (sweetbread brochettes, poultry) and fresh cheeses, now until 2018.
Made predominantly with Sauvignon blanc, this wine is the ideal accompaniment to oysters, and is also delicious with spicy ginger or citronella-flavoured dishes. Generous bouquet of verbena and citrus. Very fresh on the palate, with restrained power and a long, elegant aftertaste featuring subtle hints of aromatic herbs.
Straw-coloured. Straightforward on the palate with wonderful vivaciousness. A fairly crisp wine. 2010-2014.

A remarkable wine, as always strongly Sauvignon in its aromas of lemon, lime-blossom and ripe pear. Sappy and succulent, powerful yet approachable, the palate is in the classic mode. Drink after 4 to 5 years.
Rich and creamy, this wine has weight as well as the hallmark freshness of 2007. The yellow fruits and spicy pear flavors are smoothed out with spice, with some herbaceous elements and a fine waft of apple skin structure. Worth aging for 3 – 4 years. Screwcap. (Imported by W.J.
