Premier Cru Classé Sauternes wine producer from the Barsac appellation, Château Climens boasts a reputation for producing world-class sweet wines. Offered here in lovely half bottle format, the 2005 vintage was reviewed by the Wine Spectator as follows, `Toffee, dried lemon rind and tropical fruit on the nose. Full-bodied and very sweet, with a dense palate of candied fruit and a long, sweet finish. Very concentrated. The botrytis spice creeps up on the finish.`

Vinous
The 2005 Climens is consistent with previous bottles. The nose is quite deep with barley sugar, fig jam, apricot and orange blossom scents. The palate is well balanced and very pure with a fresh and effervescent entry, a keen line of acidity and a vivid, Clementine- and apricot-infused finish. So much energy here—this is outstanding. Tasted at the 2005 Sauternes horizontal held at Château Coutet. Neal Martin17th June 2025
