Clos des Lunes, Semillon & Sauvignon Blanc, Lune d'Argent, Bordeaux Blanc, France 2021
Clos des Lunes is 70% Sémillon, 30% Sauvignon Blanc
Lune d’Argent is the heart of the production at Clos des Lunes. With a touch of French oak, the Sémillon is dense and rich, the Sauvignon Blanc refined and precise. This cuvée of dry white wine promises to convey all the magic of Sauternes.
The Lune d'Argent is a light yellow color with pale green tints. Intense and complex nose of exotic white and citrus fruits mixed with floral notes of linden and acacia. The palate is rich, generous, ample and intensely fruity, with very good tension. The Sauvignon Blanc lemon juice delicately coats the exotic sweetness (lychee, mango) of the well-ripe Sémillon. Mineral notes bringing good salinity to the finish.
Located in Sauternes, on one of the greatest white wine terroirs in France, the Clos des Lunes is a magnificent rolling vineyard planted with old sémillon and sauvignon blanc vines. On very old vines, some perfectly golden clusters are chosen and delicately sorted grain by grain, by expert hands.
