This white Bordeaux was produced by Château Lestage, which earned the prestigious status of Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel in the 2020 update of the Cru Bourgeois classification. La Mouette is the estate`s vineyard planted to 50% Sauvignon Blanc and 50% Sémillon. The vines are densely planted at a rate of 7,000 per hectare, occupying a small 0.5-hectare plot with clay and limestone soils. The grapes for La Mouette are meticulously hand-harvested, gently pressed, and the resulting juice is fermented and matured in oak barrels. This process involves a relatively brief ageing period on the lees, occasionally stirred [bâtonnage], before the wine is finally bottled.

The 2022 La Mouette, the white wine from Château Lestage in Listrac, shows a lively, slightly oaky bouquet with aromas of lemon oil, jasmine, verbena and spices. Juicy and tense on the palate, the wine is round, supple and medium-bodied with a tannic finish. - Yohan Castaing

The 2022 La Mouette has a simple, slightly waxy bouquet that has a little more personality than its peers. The palate is balanced with fine depth and a little honeyed in texture, showing pineapple and peach notes on the finish. Enjoy this over the next two or three years.
