Tasting Notes

Clear and brilliant pale-yellow colour. A complex array of aromas dominated by floral notes of hawthorn, lime blossom and honeysuckle. Tropical fruit and citrus flavours come to the fore on the palate. Notes of lemon, pineapple and grapefruit emerge, mingled with nuances of fleshy fruit such as pear and lychee. Very delicious, round and opulent on the palate, with wonderful minerality. The overall impression is of a very fruity wine. The incredibly long aftertaste showcases the complexity of this wine, with ripe fruit flavours balanced out by a lovely vivaciousness. All in all, this Clarendelle Bordeaux Blanc is a gourmet, refined wine with a great deal of tension and elegance.

Product Highlights

Made by the famed Domaine Clarence Dillon cousins, this blend of Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc, with a possible touch of Muscadelle, is all about balance. Generosity and texture come from the Sémillon, while the Sauvignon Blanc provides intensity and aromatics. It’s a wine that delights with its sophistication and accessibility. Born from a vintage where only the resilient triumphed, the vines thrived through hot, dry conditions, delivering grapes that are richly expressive and deeply concentrated, yet still retain their brilliant freshness.

In the glass: hawthorn, lime blossom, and honeysuckle, layered with tropical fruit and citrus. On the palate: bright and generous, with vibrant lemon, juicy pineapple, and pink grapefruit, all pulled together by a delicate minerality. With its round, opulent texture and lingering finish, this is a wine that feels indulgent yet remains delicate. Go on, reward your curiosity!
