Clos du Soleil Fumé Blanc 2025
Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaWe love consistency at GOW, and this label is a model student. Expect a restrained, mineral driven take that apes the Bordeaux blueprint of 70% sauvignon blanc, 30% sémillon, fermented in mostly neutral oak to soften the edges and add texture. There are plenty of aromatics here, led by grapefruit pith, lime zest, and white peach, with a smoky, leesy undertone. The palate is dry and linear, with bright acidity, citrus, and orchard fruit, dusted with savoury desert scrub notes. The finish is clean, stony, and persistent. Think West Coast shellfish as the match.Tasted: 15 May 2026Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $26.90 | 750ml | winery online/direct, select private retailers |
