Honeyed, mature and oh so delicious now. This Climens is not super concentrated but it does have the complexity of bottle age, a lovely balance between sweetness, acidity and depth of flavours. Lingering finish.

Dark in colour, with its copper, amber hue, the wine instantly reminds me of an apple tart tatin with extra notes of orange, pineapple, caramel, honey and butterscotch. Bright and fresh with a lot of racy acidities, this can work well with a nice selection of cheese.

Very nervy nose with quite high VA. Very intense and golden creamy. Edgy and interesting. Just a touch of positive decay. Not actually that sweet, but beautifully balanced.

Château Château Climens
Château Climens
Château Climens is a 30-hectare wine estate located in Barsac, Gironde. In the Barsac AOC, it is classified as a Premier Grand Cru in the official 1855 Bordeaux classification. The 30-hectare continuous vineyard sits on red clay-sand soil over limestone. The grape variety is 100% Sémillon (one of the few single-variety vineyards in the region), with a density of 6,600 vines/ha and an average vine age of 35 years. Climens produces only sweet white wine. Climens' yields are particularly low, averaging 7 hl/ha, or even 4 hl/ha in difficult years, allowing for exceptional quality and concentration. The estate produces a second wine called Cyprès de Climens or Les Cyprès de Climens, in memory of a curious tradition: when boats paid their toll (right of passage) on the Ciron, they were given a blue cypress branch to prove payment. Outstanding vintages: 1971, 1983, 1986, 1988, 1989, 1990, 2001, 2005. Overall, the wines produced at Climens are consistently high-flying and of high quality. This is due to the high-quality production standards demanded by Bérénice Lurton and her team.
