It was classified as a first growth in the 1885 Classification of Sauternes and Barsac alongside other châteaux such as Guiraud and Suduiraut. Climens is one of only a handful of châteaux in Bordeaux that produces its wines from only one grape: Semillon. The wine is characterized by fresh citrus notes, white flowers and spice, which becomes more honeyed and concentrated with age. Semillon thrives on the limestone-rich soils in the vineyards. Botrytis develops on the grapes because of the misty mornings, humidity and warmer afternoons that are typical during the months before harvest. If the grapes are not of the highest quality, or if botrytis has not properly formed, owner Bérénice Lurton and her team will not produce their top wine, the grand vin Château Climens. They have been bold enough in the past to declassify an entire harvest of fruit – either selling the grapes off to other producers rather than bottling as their own or releasing wines under secondary labels.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-02-14T10:45:32-05:00","created_at":"2023-02-05T13:59:49-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","other_french wine","Other_Wine","Producer_Chateau Climens","Region_Bordeaux","RK0302","Source_Hedonism0123","Type_Dessert Wine","Varietal_Semillon"],"price":89999,"price_min":89999,"price_max":89999,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42764896796810,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2001 | Climens | Barsac","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":89999,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/62_09707df0-fb01-447d-8821-51e864096b16.png?v=1675623628"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/62_09707df0-fb01-447d-8821-51e864096b16.png?v=1675623628","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2001 | Climens | Barsac at CaskCartel.com","id":24162834317450,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.381,"height":339,"width":129,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/62_09707df0-fb01-447d-8821-51e864096b16.png?v=1675623628"},"aspect_ratio":0.381,"height":339,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/62_09707df0-fb01-447d-8821-51e864096b16.png?v=1675623628","width":129}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eDessert Wine: 2001 | Climens | Barsac\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFull-bodied, with a wild and exciting palate.
