2018 Clarendelle White Bordeaux

WSI93+ In a beautiful golden yellow color with a green glow, the wines are marked by roundness, fat and a beautiful aromatic power. There are aromas of liquoreux with notes of apricot, white peach, but also grapefruit. The wines are of great minerality, with powerful and fresh fruit flavors in all its brilliance, density and structure of a great white wine. Blend: 42% Sémillon, 30% Sauvignon Blanc, 28% Muscadelle

Produced by Clarence Dillon Wines in conjunction with the team of oenologists from Chateau Haut-Brion and Chateau La Mission Haut-Brion, Clarendelle Blanc comes from mainly the Graves appellation.  The wine is made from 69% Semillon, 19% Sauvignon Blanc and 12% Muscadelle.  Classic fermentation in temperatured-controlled stainless-steel tank for 10 months before bottling.   

Clarendelle Blanc reflects the subtle, well-balanced structure of white wines from Domaine Clarence Dillon.
It features all the complexity and mystery of its illustrious cousins. Clarendelle Blanc is a fine blend of two traditional grape varieties, Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc, as well as a touch of Muscadelle in certain vintages.
