Clos Floridène blanc - Graves 2014

Guide Hachette

2 / 3

le 22/09/2016

Vinifié et élévé en fût de chène, ce vin d'un jaune paille brillant charme par son bouquet expressif, d'une grande finesse. Le boisé grillé s'allie à des fragrances d'acacia et à des touches légèrement muscatées. Plein, gras, rehaussé de jolies notes d'amandes grillée, tonifié par une finale vive et alerte, le palais témoigne d'une rare maîtrise de la vinification.

The 2014 Clos Floridène Blanc is laced with green apples, flowers, mint and lightly honeyed notes. This supple, beautifully textured 56% Sémillon/Sauvignon Blanc is super-inviting and ideally suited for drinking over the next year or two, while the flavors remain vibrant.

The Clos Floridene Blanc 2014 has a very composed nose in the making. This is keeping everything back, but there is appreciable delineation with citrus peel, white peach and apple peel aromas. The palate is crisp and fresh with good acidity, just a little rasping on the finish but there is commendable length and a sense of energy here. This will probably represent great value.

Intensely, almost stinkily Sauvignon on the nose. Every ounce of flavour has been coaxed out of these grapes! Far from fat, the wine is high in acidity and race. Needs a bit of time to open out.

Very pure, with chiseled lime, mâche and lemon curd notes, showing a flash of white asparagus on the finish. Still tight, but
the solid length bodes well.
