Clos Floridène Blanc 2019

Freshness and elegance are what best describes this Graves, with a very balanced blend of Sémillon (55%) and Sauvignon Blanc. Eight months on the lees have added creaminess and a subtle roundness to the otherwise assertive minerality. Crunchy conference pear, lime zest and Granny Smith Apple lead the way to the pleasantly spicy finish.

Sliced apples, pears, white peaches and lemons on the nose. It’s medium-bodied with tangy, lemony acidity and a supple, fruity palate. 55% semillon and 45% sauvignon blanc. Drink now.

The 2019 Blanc reveals an enticing nose of fresh lime juice, yuzu zest and pink grapefruit with wafts of coriander seed and shaved almonds. The medium-bodied palate has a seriously racy line of freshness cutting through the intense citrus layers, finishing on a chalky note.
