The Clos Floridène Blanc 2018, hailing from the Graves region of Bordeaux, France, is an elegant and complex white wine that truly embodies the essence of its terroir. Upon pouring, the wine reveals a pale golden hue, hinting at its vibrant and fresh nature. The nose is greeted with an aromatic bouquet of white peach, lemon zest, and a subtle hint of vanilla. On the palate, the wine is crisp and refreshing, with a zesty acidity and a subtle minerality that lingers on the finish. As the wine opens up, notes of grapefruit and a touch of toasted almonds emerge, adding depth to its already enticing profile. This vintage of Clos Floridène Blanc is a true testament to the Chateau's dedication to producing exceptional wines that showcase the unique characteristics of their prestigious region. Enjoy now or cellar for a few years to experience its full potential.
Winemakers Notes
51% Sauvignon Blanc - 49% Sémillon
Clos Floridène vineyard, in Pujols sur Ciron, located in the Graves region, has been slowly developed since 1982 by Denis and Florence Dubourdieu, thanks to the successive purchases of plots located in the best terroirs. The name of the estate is derived from the two founders' first names.
Clos Floridène Blanc has the particularities of white wines produced on great calcareous soils: green-gold color, intense aroma with fruity notes of white peach, lemon, grapefruit, toasted and grilled nuances. Powerful and fresh flavors of fruit at its best, with the density and structure of a great white wine. Ageing potential of at least 10 years.
