2022 Ch. Tronquoy Blanc

A blend of 70% Sémillon and 30% Sauvignon Gris, the 2022 Tronquoy Blanc offers up aromas of white flowers, spring blossoms, confit citrus and ripe pear, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny and enveloping palate with a fleshy core of fruit, racy acids and a delicate phenolic character that lends definition to the white fruit-inflected finish. This should age gracefully, but it's already showing brilliantly out of the gates.

First made in 2011, the 2022 Château Tronquoy Blanc is based on 60% Semillon and 40% Sauvignon Gris. It has a beautifully vibrant, lively nose of pears, white flowers, spice, and crushed stone. This carries to a medium-bodied white with a pure, layered, juicy mouthfeel, terrific balance, and a dry, salty finish that keeps you coming back to the glass.

Rich gold, reflecting the Sémillion and Sauvignon Gris blend, plenty of juice, with a slice of mango, white pear, apricot, lime zest This really is up there is the best of the dry whites of 2022, good grip and length. 15% new oak, 300l barrels for ageing.
