Mittleres Gelb, lindengrüne Nuancen darin, leuchtend. Geniales Bouquet, weisses Pfirsichfleisch, Minze, zartes Vanillin, eine parfümierte Mineralik zeigend. Schlanker Gaumen, feinpfeffrige Rasse, extrem lang. Nachdem es in Vergangenheit viele burgundisch-weisse Fieuzals gab ist das ein völlig klar ausgerichteter, grosser weisser Bordeaux der seinen Sauvignon-Blanc-Absender deutlich zeigt. Während man beim roten Fieuzal von der Vinifikation her leider die Grenzen zu stark ausgelotet hat, ist hier die Recherche ans ganz grosse Ziel gelangt. Hier hat man einen der fraglos grössten, weissen Bordeaux des Jahrganges 2014 im Glas. Bravo! Der kommt definitiv in den Gabriel-Keller. (2020 - 2038)

93 Robert Parker
The Château de Fieuzal Blanc 2014 has an attractive nose: lime mixed with citrus fruit and touches of grilled walnut coming through with aeration. The palate is quite shrill on the entry with attacking lime and citrus scents. The acidity is quite strong here, but there is plenty of fruit and a lovely sense of tension on the finish. This is an excellent Pessac-Léognan from this rejuvenated estate.
93 James Suckling
A dry white with lots of mineral and white-pepper character as well as lightly cooked apples and lemons. Full-bodied, yet this remains agile and lively. Intense finish. Layered and structured. Little oily. Drink now or hold.

Pippin apple, green melon rind and green plum notes mix with hints of tarragon and lime. Offers a fresh feel through the finish.—J.M.
