Notes: Robert Parker 92/100, Gault Millau 17/20, Bettane & Desseauve15.5/20, Guide Hachette 1*(Very successful wine)
"Magnificent aromatics of wood smoke, earth, honeysuckle, lemongrass, and melon, all present in this aromatically complex wine. It has superb depth, is well structured, with good acidity and a long finish. It should evolve over a period of 20 years." (Wine Advocate - Robert Parker) • Delivery in original wooden cases for orders of 12 bottles delivered in France •

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2023 guide) 3 stars (High-quality production, serving as a benchmark in its sector)
About the estate:
This vintage was long famous first for its white wine, one of the most complete in Léognan, and then also for its red, at its best one of the most brilliant illustrations of the character of Pessac-Léognan. The last decade has marked a return to the highest level for Fieuzal white. The new, ultra-efficient cellars, with numerous small vats of various sizes, made of concrete, stainless steel, or wood, now allow Stephen Carrier, the director, to produce haute couture wines.

Rated estate (2023 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing good-quality wines; you won't be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
This classified growth located in the southernmost part of Léognan produced some of Bordeaux's greatest white wines in the 1980s. After being sold to Banque Populaire in 1994, Fieuzal declined until 2001. That year, Irish businessman Lochlann Quinn purchased the estate and hired Stephen Carrier from Champagne as its director. Since then, the estate has returned to excellent form, with a clear focus on body, structure and tannic elegance in the reds, and freshness with the arrival of consultant Thomas Duclos. With some failures (2013) and great successes (2008), the whites are gradually regaining their full-bodied, intense character and aging potential.
