Tasting notes
The 2014 Clos Floridène Blanc is soft, textured and inviting. Orchard fruit, spice, menthol and pear are beautifully layered throughout. Silky and generous, but with lively acidity, the 2014 Blanc is pretty and also absolutely delicious.

The 2014 Clos Floridène Blanc is laced with green apples, flowers, mint and lightly honeyed notes. This supple, beautifully textured 56% Sémillon/Sauvignon Blanc is super-inviting and ideally suited for drinking over the next year or two, while the flavors remain vibrant.
The Clos Floridene Blanc 2014 has a very composed nose in the making. This is keeping everything back, but there is appreciable delineation with citrus peel, white peach and apple peel aromas. The palate is crisp and fresh with good acidity, just a little rasping on the finish but there is commendable length and a sense of energy here. This will probably represent great value.
Very pure, with chiseled lime, mâche and lemon curd notes, showing a flash of white asparagus on the finish. Still tight, but the solid length bodes well.—J.M. Wine Spectator, April 2015.
