Chateau Olivier Blanc Pessac-Leognan 2020 95pts

95 Points Wine Enthusiast
Crisp, tight and mineral driven, the wine is both crisp and textured. The citrus and green fruits give freshness as well as spice flavors. The wine should be very fine as it matures.

94 Points James Suckling
Plenty of pear drop, honey, ginger, and dried pineapple character. Full-bodied. Framed and tangy at the end. Very typical white from this appellation.

93 Points Wine Advocate
The 2020 Olivier Blanc sings of fresh Bosc pears, yellow apples and waxed lemons, plus hints of wet slate and fennel seed. The medium-bodied palate is clean, crisp and wonderfully refreshing, offering bags of citrus and apple-inspired flavors with a spicy kick on the finish.

93 Points Decanter
Good quality, with lilting acidities. Seems to have stepped away from the slate-heavy slightly reductive style of Olivier in recent years (I may be in the minority to miss it), showcasing fleshy citrus and lemongrass flavours, cut through with precise spice and freshly cut herbs. Remains one of the best whites you can buy in Bordeaux.
