Pale yellow with green tints. Complex aromas of white flowers, exotic fruits, citrus and boxwood, with a touch of minerality. Aromatic, with a nice richness and freshness. Predominant flavors of tart, crisp fruit.
Enjoy this wine as an aperitif or during the meal with fish, seafood or chicken salad.
"Fresh gooseberries, sliced green apples and a hint of grass. Simple and a little tart, with a relatively neutral, medium-bodied palate. Clean, short and easy. Sauvignon and colombard. Drink now. Screw cap."

"Emerald straw color. Aromas and flavors of white melons, honey, white asparagus, and baklava with a supple, crisp, dryish light body and a smooth, medium-length finish with nuances of lemon spritz with no oak flavor. A clean and crushable Bordeaux Blanc for summer quaffing."

"Brilliant pale gold color with green reflections. Expressive nose reminiscent of citrus fruits and spring flowers. On the palate, a balanced wine whose freshness firmly enhances the delicious aromas. A good white to serve on shellfish."

"Pale gold color, bright edges. The nose is fine and discreet, followed by notes of grapefruit, mandarin and flowers such as brooms. Expressive in the mouth with an invigorating attack. It is sharp and lively with clean and crisp fragrances. Very typical."
"Another great value brought in by Kysela is the 2017 Chateau Larroque Blanc, which is all Sauvignon Blanc brought up in tank. It’s fresh, lively, and straight-up delicious, with easygoing lemon, lime, and subtle mineral aromas and flavors. It doesn’t break the bank and delivers plenty of pleasure."
