Clos Floridène is a benchmark name in white Bordeaux—founded by the legendary Denis Dubourdieu, the estate has helped define the modern style of Graves Blanc: fresh, structured, and deeply mineral. Located on a ridge of limestone and gravel in the southern Graves, it’s one of the rare Bordeaux whites that consistently over-delivers for the price.

The 2022 is a classic blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon, fermented and aged partially in oak, with regular lees stirring. The result is beautifully textured and layered: lemon curd, white peach, and green herbs wrapped in a creamy mid-palate, lifted by Graves’ signature stony tension. The Sémillon adds quiet depth and aging potential, while the Sauvignon keeps things vivid and bright.

This is white Bordeaux with Chablis-like backbone and a little white Burgundy polish—perfect for seafood, richer poultry, or aging a few years to watch it evolve.

Pair with: crab cakes, roast chicken with tarragon, or a cheese board with soft-ripened goat cheese.

Antonio Galloni

"The 2020 Clos Floridène Blanc is exquisite. Bright, creamy and perfumed, Clos Floridène is a winner. Gentle hints of apricot, spice, chamomile, spice and lemon confit all grace this impeccably balanced white from the Dubourdieu family." —Antonio Galloni

Robert Parker

88 points

"Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2020 Clos Floridene is redolent of black cherry compote, ripe, juicy plums and redcurrant jelly, plus suggestions of dried Mediterranean herbs, mossy tree bark and Sichuan pepper. The medium-bodied palate offers mouth-coating black and red fruit flavors with a firm, chewy backbone and plenty of freshness, finishing with an herbal lift." —Lisa Perrotti-Brown

Decanter

90 points

"Yellow-green reflections, soft citrus notes where a slate minerality gives whispers of freshness together with subtle sage and rosemary."

Wine Spectator

91 points

"Very focused, with a streamlined set of lemon peel, fleur de sel and verbena notes that are long and finely tuned through the finish."

Wine Enthusiast

93 points

"The 2020 Clos Floridène Blanc is laced with apricot, dried flowers, mint and a touch of spice. Light on its feet and airy, the 2020 is decidedly understated."
