In organic conversion, the estate will be certified with the 2023 vintage. The 2021 Lune d'Argent from Clos des Lunes reveals a Sauvignon Blanc-driven Bouquet with aromas of lemon, pear, herbs, spring flowers and acacia with lactic hints. Juicy and elegant, lively with a delicate core of fruit, it finishes fruity and fresh.

Racy and fresh, featuring tightly focused chamomile, quinine, yellow apple and white peach notes, with finely beaded acidity. Lingering, mouthwatering finish. Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc. Drink now through 2025.

Full of crisp fruit, this wine from an estate in the Sauternes region is perfumed and tangy. Citrus flavors are lively and will fill out. Drink from 2025.

Green peas and crisp green apples on the nose with citrus aromas. Juicy and alive, exotic pineapple, apricot and almost sweet lemon juice aspects, nothing too bitter or harsh at all, round with a gentle creaminess that comes in towards the mid palate while staying quiet lean and direct. Much less severe and acidic than I was thinking, really balanced and harmonious and so enjoyable to drink with a slate and mineral finish. A top value pick!

An attractive, perfumed white with expressive minerality and structure, this has a fresh character of stone fruits and citrus with white flowers and crushed stones. Medium-bodied with vivid acidity. 70% semillon and the rest sauvignon blanc. Drink or hold.

The 2021 Lune d'Argent has a taut and focused bouquet, with touches of Granny Smith, petrichor and stem ginger all delineated and gaining intensity. The palate is well-balanced with a fine bead of acidity, very poised. Just a hint of bitter lemon lends tension, segueing discretely into a spiced finish. Excellent.

Honeysuckle, white peach, spice, ginger, and pineapple with a dab of vanilla smell great. And, the Palate is even better with all of its creamy, fresh, green apples and tropical fruits. The wine is a Blend of 70% Semillon with 30% Sauvignon Blanc. Due to the frost, close to 50% of the harvest was lost. Drink from 2024-2029.

Bright and racy, with crushed citrus and tart melon-like aromas and flavors, the 2021 Lune D'Arget Blanc is medium-bodied, has high yet integrated acidity, and a clean, crisp finish. It's going to drink beautifully over the coming 4-6 years, if not longer.

A blend of 70% Semillon and 30% Sauvignon Blanc, the 2021 Clos des Lunes features delicate, fragrant scents of lemon tart, yuzu, and chalk dust, with a touch of white pepper. The light-bodied palate is refreshing and zesty, with a compelling steeliness on the finish. A real thirst quencher!

On the nose, lovely aromas of lychee and cut grass dominate. On the palate, lychee returns, both in the aromas and in the texture, on a creamy background of syrupy peach. The finish, carried by passion fruit, takes you to a tropical island.
