Robert Parker

scallop carpaccio

Closerie Grand Blanc de Lavabre 2018 has a toasty nose reminiscent of flambéed orange zest. Flavors of melon and pear complement the medium-bodied palate, while notes of crushed stone appear on the finish. Complex and flavorful, it should be enjoyed for at least 2 to 3 years."
