In the heart of Bordeaux’s Graves region, Clos Floridene’s 2020 Graves Blanc showcases the balance and finesse that this terroir is known for. The estate, which has long been committed to producing wines that reflect the purity of the land, crafts this white with a careful blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon, creating a wine that is both vibrant and complex.
The 2020 vintage opens with an expressive nose of citrus—grapefruit and lemon—accented by delicate floral notes and a touch of herbal freshness. On the palate, the wine feels alive with bright acidity, carrying the citrus fruit while the Sémillon imparts a smooth, round texture. The finish is crisp and mineral-driven, with a refreshing edge that reflects the gravelly soils of Graves, leaving a lingering sense of purity.
Clos Floridene’s Graves Blanc 2020 is a versatile wine, perfect for pairing with fresh seafood, goat cheese, or light poultry dishes. Its elegance and balance make it enjoyable now, but it will also age gracefully, revealing even more layers of complexity over time. This wine is a beautiful example of Bordeaux blanc at its most refined, offering both freshness and depth in every sip.
