AOC Pessac-Léognan
Château La Louvière's second wine, L de La Louvière, is made with the same care and attention as its older brother. This wine is immensely attractive thanks to its roundness and fruitiness. It is produced according to traditional methods with a few modern touches in a prestigious location where art reigns alongside winegrowing.

Conditions météorologiques
2021 was marked by very capricious weather. There was a lot of rain in the spring. An episode of frost at the beginning of April caused major damage. The summer was very mild, with no extreme
heat. At the end of August, fine weather set in, with high temperatures during the day and cool nights: ideal conditions for ripening the grapes. These last few weeks were crucial to the success of this vintage.

Dégustation
A limpid wine, with a lovely pale yellow colour and hints of silver.
The elegant nose is highly aromatic. It offers a refreshing, mouth-watering bouquet of citrus fruit notes of citrus and white fruit (white peach).
The palate is beautifully fresh and well-balanced. Juicy grapefruit notes accompany us throughout the tasting, making it particularly enjoyable. This white L de La Louvière is a very pleasant and refreshing wine. Medium length.
