Clos des Lunes "Lune d'Or" 2017

Wine Advocate-Parker :
A blend of 70% Semillon and 30% Sauvignon Blanc, the 2017 Lune d'Or offers up alluring scents of ripe Bosc pears, fresh Golden Delicious apples and lemongrass with hints of shaved ginger, coriander seed and cedar. The elegantly styled, medium-bodied palate is packed with tightly wound apple and spice-inspired flavors, featuring a satiny texture and racy backbone, finishing long and mineral laced. Although approachable now, to really experience all those layers in their full glory, I'd give this another six to 12 months in bottle and drink it over the next decade or more. If you love Chablis, although this is a completely different grape, the style and ideal food pairings are not so dissimilar, and this would make a great change of scene!
