Château La Louvière's second wine, L de La Louvière, is made with the same care and attention as its older brother. This wine is immensely attractive thanks to its roundness and fruitiness. It is produced according to traditional methods with a few modern touches in a prestigious location where art reigns alongside winegrowing.
Fresh and Fruity
100% Sauvignon.
Spring was very trying, with considerable rainfall leading to fungal diseases of all sorts. This called for very close attention in the vines until the 14th of July, when the weather changed durably for the better.
Pale green and crystal.
L de La Louvière is often cited by professional tasters as one of the leading white wines of Pessac-Léognan. It exemplifies the appellation's ethereal and floral style, with understated oak. The 2012 vintage is fully in keeping with this reputation since the bouquet immediately reveals hints of acacia blossom and lychee. Brioche aromas are released when the wine is swirled in the glass.
The wine starts out straightforward and well-defined on the palate, going on to reveal a round, charming side. Attractive peach and nectarine flavours go into a long aftertaste. The wine shows very lovely balance, which means that it is quite enjoyable very young, but will also keep and improve for four or five years thanks to its concentration. What better wine to accompany a cheese platter? Cow's milk, goat's milk, and sheep's milk cheeses are marvellously complemented by this second wine from Chateau La Louvière.
2015 Edition - The second wine strikes a fine balance between fresh fruit and toasty oak, and between richness and acidity. 2014-2018.
2013 - 2022
