Vinous 91 byNeal Martinthe4/1/2026 The 2024 Clos Floridène Blanc has quite a reserved bouquet, opening with time, with scents of white flower, pear and light Granny Smith apple. The palate is well balanced with a well-judged thread of acidity that lends this Bordeaux Blanc tension. Just a dab of spice on the finish extends its length. Recommended.
Vinum 88-90 byAdrian Van Velsenthe5/6/2025 Im Duft mit leicht laktischer Note, Apfel, Zitrusfrüchte; zugänglich, rund, reife Frucht, zupackende Säure, salziges Finale. Ein stimmiger Weisswein für viele Gelegenheiten.
Vinous 86-88 byNeal Martinthe5/5/2025 The 2024 Clos Floridene has a pretty nose with mocha-tinged red berry fruit. Not complex, but it has presence. The palate is medium-bodied, with blackberry and light saline notes on the entry. This is tannic on the mid-palate, with a hardness on the finish that will hopefully soften during its barrel maturation.
Vinous 90-92 byAntonio Gallonithe4/30/2025 Oily and textured in the glass, the 2024 Clos Floridène Blanc offers up scents of mint, apricot, dried flowers, chamomile and spice, with light tropical overtones that hold it all together. This is a gorgeous dry white from the Dubourdieu family.
