Marks and reviews

Decanter

Pale lemon and more complex thanks to vinification in oak, it can rival a Pessac-Leognan.

Neal Martin

The 2012 Lune d'Or has an intriguing bouquet, not unlike a Loire with some maturity. Touches of wet wool permeate the citrus fruit, and hints of beeswax emerge with time. The palate is well balanced, with white chocolate and walnut on the entry, a slightly yeasty style, but with adequate freshness on the finish.

From a selection of the estate’s best 100 barrels, grapefruit, lemon, lime, honeysuckle and mineral notes pop from the glass with little effort. The wine is concentrated, fresh, long, citrusy, sweet, lively and complex. 91-93 pts

Jean-Marc Quarin

Fifteen barrels still maturing. The palate is rich, full, and flavorful, with a complex, long finish. It’s very good and suitable for ageing. Blend: 70% Sémillon, 30% Sauvignon.

Description

Bright and crystalline gold color. This Clos des Lunes, Lunes d'Or 2012 has an intense nose of peach, acacia flowers, exotic and delicate fragrances with a vibrant mineral com-plexity, sign of the great gravels ter-roirs. On the palate, fruity and subtle ca-ress of the attack gives way to a fee-ling of power and delicacy. Semillon aspires to impose itself but the airy nature of Sauvignon domi-nates and we are carried away by the long waltz of the two varieties in a context of various and refined fla-vors. Few years in the cellar will reveal the full potential of the dry Bordeaux.
