"An excellent choice!"

“Lune d'Argent 2022 displays remarkable richness, very much in keeping with the vintage. Orchard fruits, white flowers, mint, and mandarin. Pear, mint, and chamomile unfold effortlessly. In 2022, Lune d'Argent has a strong presence, making it an excellent choice for the table. The reader should expect a rich, layered Sauvignon Blanc. Lovely floral notes grace the finish.” (Vinous 2023) - Clos des Lunes d'Argent offers excellent value for money. This best-seller is produced by the team at Domaine de Chevalier, a Cru Classé of Pessac-Léognan.

About the wine:

Fresh and lively, crisp and well-balanced on the palate with creamy, chalky notes of lemon, pear, and apricot. An easy-drinking style with nuance and freshness. It lacks a bit of body and bite, but there’s an appealing hint of bitter lemon zest alongside flavors of apricot and peach. It’s crisp. 2025–2030

About the wine:

A delicate bouquet with notes of flint and matches that frame the citrus cream. Quite full-bodied and expansive on the palate, with a slightly phenolic mid-palate and a savory, salty finish. Best enjoyed starting in 2025.

About the wine:

The bouquet shows clear maturity, but no further development! The rich aroma evokes the warmth of the vintage, while the structure highlights its freshness. A savory, refreshing wine. Drink now through 2027

About the wine:

Highest rating given to this wine as a Primeur: An intense nose, with ripe fruit and, for the first time, floral notes. The palate is smooth, light, and subtly rich, with a very long, delicately velvety finish.

About the wine:

Pineapple, guava, yellow citrus fruits, and floral notes form the core of this wine. On the palate, the wine is smooth, juicy, and concentrated. The finish features white peach, green apple, and lemon cream. Best enjoyed between 2024 and 2030.
