Chateau Louviere Blanc 1999 (review)

82 points

Graves, Bordeaux. 12.5%

I have had little experience with white Bordeaux. This is as I would expect dry, savoury, and with considerable oak. Semillon I can believe, but Sauvignon Blanc no. Unfortunately the wine seems pretty dried out and oxidised. Perhaps not a great bottle. Oddly the alcohol seems high.
