🌟 A Golden Benchmark of Barsac Elegance
Often referred to as the “Lord of Barsac,” Château Climens is a Premier Cru Classé producer crafting ethereal and profoundly complex sweet wines from biodynamically grown Sémillon.

🍯 In the Glass
Brilliant golden hue with glints of amber as it ages—luxurious and luminous.

👃 On the Nose
An intoxicating bouquet of honeyed apricot, candied orange peel, white flowers, lemon curd, and saffron. A distinct chalky minerality whispers of Barsac's limestone soils.

🍑 On the Palate
Silky yet lifted—concentrated flavours of peach confit, quince, almond cream, and sweet spice unfold in precise layers. Despite the richness, the wine’s hallmark acidity gives it astonishing freshness and a long, vibrant finish.

🧀 Food Pairing
Perfect with foie gras, blue cheeses, roasted poultry, and fruit-based desserts like tarte Tatin or poached pears. For a bold contrast, try it with spicy Thai cuisine or sushi.

⏳ Ageing Potential
Capable of evolving for decades. Over time, it gains complexity, showing notes of dried fruit, caramel, and toasted nuts, while retaining its mineral backbone.

💘 Why You’ll Love It
Château Climens stands as one of the finest expressions of botrytised Sémillon—both graceful and powerful, sweet and crystalline. A wine of meditation, celebration, and pure Barsac soul.
