Clos des Lunes has established itself as one of the leading names in dry white Bordeaux. Located in the heart of the Sauternes region, on terroirs historically dedicated to great sweet wines, the estate—founded by Olivier Bernard (Domaine de Chevalier)—focuses exclusively on producing high-quality dry white wines.
Through meticulous vineyard selection and precise winemaking, Clos des Lunes crafts wines that are expressive, balanced and remarkably pure. They stand out for their freshness, aromatic precision and their ability to rival some of the finest white wines from Bordeaux, including those from Pessac-Léognan.
Today, Clos des Lunes wines are widely recognized for their outstanding value and consistency, making them a key reference for wine lovers seeking elegant and approachable dry white Bordeaux wines.
The vineyards of Clos des Lunes are planted on deep gravel, clay and limestone soils, ensuring excellent drainage and refined aromatic expression. Located between Sauternes and Barsac, the estate benefits from a unique microclimate with morning mists and sunny afternoons, allowing optimal ripeness while preserving natural acidity.
The blend is primarily based on Sémillon, which brings richness and texture, combined with Sauvignon Blanc, which provides freshness and vibrancy. This balance results in wines that are both structured and lively, with notable aromatic complexity.
The estate produces several cuvées—Lune d’Argent, Lune Blanche and Lune d’Or—each reflecting a different level of selection and concentration, while maintaining the signature freshness and minerality of Clos des Lunes.
Clos des Lunes wines are known for their precise aromatic profile, combining citrus notes, white fruits, floral hints and occasional exotic nuances. On the palate, they offer vibrant acidity, a silky texture and a long, often saline finish.
Highly versatile, these wines pair perfectly with seafood, grilled or sauced fish, goat cheese and Asian cuisine. Their balance between freshness and structure also allows for aging over several years, gaining complexity over time.
Whether enjoyed young or paired with refined dishes, Clos des Lunes is a benchmark in dry white Bordeaux wines, available on 12bouteilles.com.
