The red-vined Clos Floridène vineyard in Pujols-sur-Cirône, located in the Graves region, was acquired by the Dubourdieu family in the 1970s. Through successive purchases of vineyards in the best locations, a high quality standard was established. The name of the wine is derived from the first names of the two founders.
With a bouquet of blackberries, strawberries, and a hint of plum, this aromatic and fresh Bordeaux, made from 72% Cabernet Sauvignon and 28% Merlot and aged for twelve months in barrels, is ready to be opened soon.
