Tasting notes
The 2023 Clos Floridene Blanc swans out with gregarious notes of lemon curd and grapefruit oil giving way to nuances of yuzu, lime zest, and chalk dust. The medium-bodied palate is packed with intense citrus flavors supported by a racy backbone, finishing chalky.

The 2023 Clos Floridène Blanc has a lively and well-defined bouquet with yellow fruit, Granny Smith and light stony aromas. The palate is fresh and crisp with grapefruit and orange rind notes. It’s a little pithier than its peers, with a slightly resinous finish. Fine.
Thoroughly tasty, plenty of creamy white pear fruit with citrus character, clove spice, and a healthy amount of slate scrape and juice on the finish. 27ha. Creamy gold colour, one month ageing on the lees, Jean-Jacques Dubourdieu.
The 2023 Clos Floridène Blanc is a heady dry white from the Dubourdieu family. Tangerine peel, chamomile, apricot and honeyed notes build in a creamy, layered white that shows the richer side of the year. Readers will find a voluptuous, extroverted wine that will shine at its brightest at the dinner table.
