"The 2010 Clos de la Maréchale Blanc is a lovely example of the vintage that is drinking beautifully from the bottle, offering up a stylish nose of apple, pear, a youthful touch of fruit-skin, white flowers, beautiful, almost salty soil tones and a deft touch of vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, crisp and very soil-driven, with lovely focus and nascent complexity, bright acids and excellent length and grip on the elegant finish. This will be lovely in another year or two, but I would love to give it a couple more years in bottle to really start to blossom."
