2019 Clos des Lunes, 'Lune d'Argent' Grand Vin Blanc Sec

2019 Clos des Lunes, 'Lune d'Argent' Grand Vin Blanc Sec

Neighbour to Château d’Yquem, this dry white from the Bernard family is absolutely stunning in 2019. Vibrant and silky, with such tension and drive, there’s also a concentration here. Just delicious, a steal at £7.50 a bottle in bond.

Tasting notes

The 2019 Lune d'Argent is more generous and slightly more honeyed on the nose compared to the Lune d'Or. This is very fragrant and articulates more "Sauternes" character. The palate is well balanced with a crisp opening, maybe drier than the aromatics augur with fine acidity and a lovely stem ginger/saline finish that urges you back for another sip. Another excellent white from Clos des Lune.
