Clos des Lunes, Lune D'Argent

DESCRIPTION

The Lune d’Argent from Clos des Lunes is a refined Bordeaux Blanc crafted primarily from Sémillon, with a touch of Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle. Harvested by hand from old vines, the grapes are carefully selected to capture both richness and freshness. The 2022 vintage reveals notes of ripe stone fruit, citrus, and delicate florals, balanced by a silky texture and mineral-driven finish. Elegant and versatile, it embodies the precision and depth of Bordeaux dry whites.

EYE

Bright pale gold with crystalline reflections.

NOSE

Expressive bouquet of white peach, citrus zest, acacia blossom, and subtle notes of wet stone.

MOUTH

Silky and layered, with flavors of ripe pear, lemon, and hints of honey. Balanced acidity and minerality lead to a long, refined finish.

PAIRING

A perfect companion for oysters, shellfish, and grilled fish, it also pairs beautifully with goat cheese, risotto, or roasted chicken. Excellent as an elegant aperitif or with fine gastronomy.

Clos des Lunes

Clos des Lunes is an exceptional estate located on the hills of Sauternes, founded by Olivier Bernard of Domaine de Chevalier (Grand Cru Classé de Graves). With a focus on producing some of the finest dry whites in Bordeaux, the domaine combines traditional savoir-faire with meticulous vineyard work. The Lune range — Blanche, d’Argent, and d’Or — has earned recognition for showcasing the purity, elegance, and complexity of Bordeaux Blanc at its best.

Bordeaux

Bordeaux is the largest and possibly the most famous wine region in France marked by it's rich history beginning in Roman times. Back in 1885, several Châteaux were classified into grand crus with five quality levels which still exist today. As a port town, its unique geography is built around the Garonne, Dordogne and Gironde rivers which have created it's famous left bank (Medoc) and right banks (Pomerol and Saint-Émilion) and the Entre-Deux-Mers (between two "seas" or rivers) regions. 90% of Bordeaux wine is red with artful blending of cabernet sauvignon, merlot, cabernet franc and petit verdot and sometimes malbec. Wines showcase a full range of taste profiles from earthy with strong and dry tannins to softer and smoother with notes of plum, black fruits. There are the go to French wines with red meat dishes.
