Lune d'Or Blanc 2020 75cl

Olivier Bernard is hands down one of the greatest winemakers in Bordeaux, celebrated year after year for his Domaine de Chevalier estate in Pessac-Léognan and his Château Guiraud in Sauternes, Bernard’s first vintage of the newly acquired Clos des Lunes estate was in 2012. While the Clos des Lunes property lies in the Sauternes appellation, the estate produces dry white wines, therefore it is sold as a white Bordeaux and not a sweet Sauternes. The vineyards stretch over 45 hectares and are planted to a majority of Sémillon with about one-third Sauvignon Blanc. The estate produces three high-quality dry whites, Lune d’Argent, Lune d’Or and Lune Blanche. Today, Olivier’s son, Hugo Bernard manages the day to day activities at Clos des Lunes.
