Tasting note

這款Graves白酒帶著清爽而有力的果酸與飽滿口感，開瓶先是柑橘皮與青檸的明亮香氣，接著有青草、檸草與細緻白花的香韻。橡木桶發酵與8個月的木桶陳年帶出輕柔的香草與香料感，但酒體依舊保持清新不厚重。田地位於黏土—石灰岩土壤，產區氣候讓果實保有鮮明的酸度與礦感，入口滑順，尾韻帶一絲鹹香與持久回味。很適合搭配油脂豐富的魚類、奶香濃的開胃小菜或簡單的海鮮料理，日常或聚餐都相當討喜。

Bright, structured and oak-tinged, this Graves white shows a lively citrus core—lemon peel and lime—framed by cut grass, lemongrass and a hint of white florals. A touch of vanilla and gentle oak spice come from fermentation and ageing in barrels and wooden vats; the palate is full-bodied with vivid acidity and a slightly saline, lingering finish. Produced by Clos Floridene (the Denis Dubourdieu project), the wine comes from the estate’s clay-limestone parcels and benefits from careful cellar work: barrel fermentation, 8 months ageing and a restrained use of oak to preserve freshness. Drink now with rich, oily fish or give it a few years to round further.

Clos Floridene is a well-regarded estate in Graves known for precision in white Bordeaux blends. The property spans roughly 41 hectares with clay-limestone soils for the white vineyards.
