Graves, a venerable appellation in Bordeaux, France, is renowned for its historical significance and the production of distinguished red and white wines. What makes Graves unique is its diverse terroir, featuring gravelly soils that not only lend the region its name but also provide excellent drainage and heat reflection, contributing to the ripening of grapes.

Lemon zest, lime curd and fresh pineapple on the nose with subtle elderflower notes. Flint, peach stones and toasted hazelnuts, too. It’s medium-bodied with crisp acidity and a beautifully creamy texture. Solid finish. Drink or hold.

Drinking nicely, the 2018 Clos Marsalette Blanc has a beautiful bouquet of honeyed lime, white grapefruit, toasted bread, and a terrific salty, mineral-like character. It's picked up a tinge of maturity since I tasted it last year and is medium-bodied and balanced, with both freshness and richness, followed by a great finish. Drink bottles any time over the coming 7-8 years.

Apricot and mango abound in this, nicely balanced by a citrus zip. Good balance. Just gets a little oak-dominant on the second glass. Drinking Window 2021 - 2028.

The 2018 Blanc has a provocative herbal streak on the nose, giving way to a core of bell peppers, green apples, lemon juice and lavender with a waft of wet pebbles. The delicately played, light to medium-bodied palate has a justifiable savory character, presenting the herbal notes as a feature of this earlier-picked style, finishing remarkably refreshing. This is a "greener" style that may not appeal to everyone, but I like how the winemaker's aspirations have played out here and can certainly recommend it for those seeking savoriness, elegance and freshness in this warmer vintage. (Declared alcohol is just 12.5%.)
