Clos des Lunes, Lune d'Argent Bordeaux Blanc, 2022

Clos des Lunes’ Lune d’Argent is a standout among white Bordeaux blends. Crafted by the team behind Domaine de Chevalier, this wine draws on old-vine Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc grown on limestone and gravel soils, giving it a balance of richness and lift that punches far above its price. The 2022 vintage is especially vibrant: white peach, lemon curd, and a hint of grapefruit zest lead into a supple, lightly waxy palate that finishes with stony precision. Sémillon gives it quiet power and aging potential, while Sauvignon Blanc adds zip and aromatic lift. It’s fermented and aged in a mix of stainless steel and used barrels, allowing the texture to develop without overwhelming the freshness. Perfect with shellfish, roast chicken, or creamy vegetable dishes, Lune d’Argent is a dry white Bordeaux that feels both classic and refreshingly modern.
