Wine Enthusiast
"Best-seller!"
"With a nice touch of Muscadelle to perfume the wine, it's bright and light. There's a touch of spice brought by the six-month aging in wood that balances this bright, fruity wine. Drink now. (Wine Enthusiast 2022). Born from the Latin name Clementia, it perfectly represents the benevolence and wisdom of one of Cheval Quancard's flagship cuvées. A suave, delicate wine for every taste!

A grapefruit nose. Supple on the palate, with a hint of vanilla. A fine example of Bordeaux winemaking. Interesting q/p ratio.
