This is very serious and shows linear acidity with lots of limes, minerals and hints of vanilla. Full and energetic.

The 2019 La Louvière Blanc has a very primal bouquet, but there is good intensity with scents of green apple, lemon, thyme and subtle lychee aromas. Good definition. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity and salinity. It is nicely focused with faint tropical notes towards the finish. I admire the cohesion and precision of this La Louvière Blanc, particularly the dab of stem ginger that crops up on the aftertaste. Excellent.
A good quality La Louvière white in this vintage, bright Sauvignon flavours without straying towards tart, and a lovely crushed stone minerality on the finish. A success, one to look out for. A yield of 48hl/ha. Jacques Lurton now at the helm of the family estates. Drinking Window 2021 - 2028
