Structured Médoc and Graves, velvety Saint-Émilion and Pomerol. Also crisp dry whites (Sauvignon/Sémillon) and opulent sweet Sauternes with honey and candied fruit.

The word of the wine: Concentrator
A device that removes water from grape must by reverse osmosis or entropy system. Its proponents say that it is better to remove water than to add sugar to produce more alcohol. The improperly used concentrator can also exaggerate bad tastes or greenness of tannins.
