Tasting notes
A blend of 69% Sémillon and 31% Sauvignon Blanc aged in oak barrels on fine lees, the 2023 Château Rahoul Blanc sports a medium gold hue as well as honeyed orange, ripe citrus, and minty herbs, with a kiss of brioche. It's medium-bodied and juicy, with good acidity and richness, and solid overall balance. This well-made white will be versatile on the dinner table and should keep for 7-8 years. Drink 2026-2033.

The 2023 Rahoul Blanc has quite an intense bouquet, yellow fruit and patisserie scents, custard cremes! The palate is well balanced with a slightly viscous texture matched by a keen line of acidity. Quite bright and impactful, this has good complexity with an almost Chenin-like finish. Very fine.
White peach, honeyed orange, and some floral notes all emerge from the 2023 Château Rahoul Blanc, a medium-bodied, juicy, elegant white with nicely integrated acidity and a clean, classy finish.
The white 2023 Rahoul sashays out with showy notes of orange blossoms, allspice, and lemongrass, leading to a core of apple pie and pear drops. The medium-bodied palate is crunchy and well-structured with appealing texture and freshness, finishing with a citrusy lift.
