The 2017 Clos Floridène Blanc has a lovely fresh green lemon, white flower and vanilla scented bouquet that opens nicely with aeration. The palate is well balanced with a ripe, tropical-tinged opening with just the right amount of acidity to keep everything focused and fresh. There is a subtle tang of ginger and marmalade towards the finish that feels long. This should be a great value once released.

The 2017 Blanc sings of white and pink grapefruit with notions of yuzu, straw and crushed rocks. The palate is medium-bodied, crisp, clean and intense with fantastic freshness and length.

There is an attractive spicy character at the back of this wine, which brings out the richness of the tropical-fruit flavors and the balance with the wood aging. It should age well, and be ready to drink from 2021.

Enticing pear, white peach and honeysuckle notes are carried by bright acidity while wrapped in a slightly plump package.—J.M.
