Patient Cottat Le Grand Caillou 2018 Review
Sharp and clean, with notes of lime, green apple and white peach on the nose. With a swirl a hint of basil emerges, along with lemongrass. The palate is smooth and almost creamy with an excellent balance of aromas carried over from the nose. The acidity is damn near perfect and holds everything in simple harmony. This is a great quality to value bottle.
