About the wine:

Lune d'Argent 2021, harvested from September 13 to October 4, offers a subtle bouquet of citrus peel, petrichor, and linden blossom aromas that unfold beautifully in the glass. The palate is briny on the attack, with lovely acidity, hints of orange peel and spice, and good density on the finish, tinged with oyster shell. This wine should provide many years of enjoyment, but it needs to age in the bottle. 2027–2040

About the wine:

Notes of white peach, pineapple, apricot, orange, mango, and limoncello create an intriguing bouquet. Bright and crisp, with a fresh, creamy finish full of citrus, this wine is a pleasure to drink right from the bottle. The wine is a blend of 70% Sémillon and 30% Sauvignon Blanc. Due to frost, nearly 50% of the harvest was lost. Best enjoyed between 2023 and 2029.
