Clos Des Lunes - Lune D'Argent 2021 (750ml)

Lots of crushed citrus, tart pineapple, and white flowers notes emerge on the nose of the 2021 Lune D'Argent Blanc, a medium-bodied, rich, nicely textured white based largely on Semillon. It shows incredible minerality on the palate and is pure, precise, and well worth seeking out.

The 2021 Lune d'Argent, picked September 13 to October 4, has an understated bouquet of citrus peel, petrichor and linden scents that unfurl nicely in the glass. The palate is saline on the entry, displaying fine acidity, touches of orange peel and spice, and good density on the oyster-shell-tinged finish. This should give many years of pleasure, but it needs bottle age. -Neal Martin
