Robert Parker

scallop carpaccio
“Closerie Grand Blanc de Lavabre 2018 offers a toasty nose reminiscent of flambéed orange zest. Flavors of melon and pear round out the medium-bodied palate, while notes of crushed stone emerge on the finish. Complex and flavorful, it should be enjoyed for at least 2 to 3 years.” (Wine Advocate - Joe Czerwinski)
