The 2017 Clos des Lunes Lune d'Argent is the normal blend of 70% Sémillon and 30% Sauvignon and this cuvée sees only older oak barrels. It’s a medium-bodied, nicely concentrated, classic Bordeaux Blanc and offers plenty of caramelized citrus, crushed rocks, and hints of sappy herbs. Clean, pure, and precise, it’s another white from Olivier Bernard well worth your time and money.

The 2017 Lune d'Argent is quite deep in this vintage, with a striking center of fruit and terrific overall balance. Lemon confit, white flowers and mint give this Sémillon-based dry white lovely nuance to play off the stony, white orchard fruit character.

The tentative blend of the 2017 Lune d'Argent is 70% Sémillon and 30% Sauvignon Blanc. It features lovely ripe peaches, fresh pears and spiced apples with touches of baking bread and white pepper. The palate is medium-bodied, fine, fresh, elegant and well balanced with a clean finish.

Pretty exotic fruit with grapefruit and lemon character. Medium body, bright acidity and a delicious finish.
