Clos des Lunes Lune Blanche Bordeaux Blanc Sec White Bordeaux Blend

Drank 9\18\19. Nice with grilled fish.

Nose of lemon, honey, and just a touch of petrol, which I had not gotten from this in the past. White peach and lemon curd, with bright acidity in the clean palate. Citrus on the medium finish. As usual, I prefer the oaked version(d'argent), bit this was singing tonight. Very nice.

Drank 4/1/19. Decent pairing with Cacio e Pepe, but would have probably preferred a Chianti.

This is the unoaked version. Lemon, minerality, and a touch of earthy funk on the nose. Very clean and balanced with flavors of lemon, citrus peel, some orange zest, and a touch of salinity. Medium to long finish with bright acidity. Overall, I prefer the Lunes d'argent for a couple of bucks more, as it seems to be richer and a bit more interesting than the unoaked Blanche.

ripe fruits with richer mouthfeel, candied lemon and oranges, green peaches, lychees, floral, it improves considerably serving it barely chilled

Grapefruit, mineral, great for a hot night.

Deliciously uncomplicated / ripe nectarine / wild flowers / grass
