A juicy palate of fleshy, white fruit (such as Asian pear) only underscores the striking aromas on this elegant Bordeaux Blanc. Generous tropical notes of kiwi and lychee mingle with honeyed floral tones. A fine, fuller texture aligns with precise acidity, providing a singular experience meant to be enjoyed over a grilled fish and Meyer lemons. From a vineyard of deep gravelly soils located in Sauternes called "Clos des Lunes," this gift-worthy white is a grand effort from famed Domaine de Chevalier in Pessac-Léognan. It was matured 25% in barrel and 75% in temperature-controlled vats with regular stirring of the lees.
Winemaker Notes
Lune d’Argent is the heart of Clos des Lunes’ production. We firmly believe in the future of this legendary terroir and its truly original style. 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.
