Score 90/100 · Drink 2014-2025, Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, Apr 2014

The 2004 La Tour Blanche has a light and quite floral bouquet that is pretty and vivacious. The palate is well-balanced with a fine line of acidity, clean honeyed fruit, hints of Szechuan pepper and citrus lemon. It gently builds in the mouth toward a harmonious finish that is not the most complex rf sweetest of recent La Tour Blanche wines, but has a sense of refinement that is pleasing. Drink now-2025+. Tasted February 2014.

A little mousy. Big and round, flowery. Not refined. (JR)

Smoky and more obviously oaky on the nose than the Climens, a touch of linseed and sage, but there’s still a lovely fresh apricot aroma to complement the oak. Finishes with a slightly dry grip in the texture. (JH)

Score 17/20 · Drink 2010-2030, Jancis Robinson MW, Oct 2006

Relatively pale gold. Lots of sweetness and some freshness. For the moment still slightly simple, pear juice with a hint of tarte tatin. (JR)
