Graves Sec · Bordeaux, France
The dry one, for the raw bar and easy starts.

Tasting Notes
Fleshy and supple, with vivid minerality. Notes of lemon zest and grapefruit lead to a fresh, faintly saline finish. Time in barrel lends gentle texture without weighing the wine down, so it stays bright and clean. An open invitation to shellfish.
PAIR WITH
Oysters and shellfish
Grilled white fish
Charcuterie and seafood starters
As an apéritif, well chilled
The Story
Le Clos des Pins is the dry counterpart to La Fleur des Pins, from the same Lamothe family of Château Haut-Bergeron, grown on their Graves vines at Pujols-sur-Ciron. Fermented and aged in oak with the lees stirred twice a week, it gains a supple, textured body while holding on to the saline freshness of its terroir. Like its sibling, it is at its best young, when the citrus and minerality are most alive.
