The wine region of Bordeaux Moelleux
Emblematic style of Bordeaux off-dry whites (10-50 g sugar/L), produced across the entire AOC area from over-ripened grapes (botrytised or passerillé). Signature Sémillon dominant: golden, round whites with signature notes of honey, apricot, candied fruits, citrus, vanilla and a quince touch, unctuous, fresh palate. Sauvignon Blanc brings taut acidity, Muscadelle the floral aromatic. Accessible, gastronomic style, affordable alternative to Sauternes.
The wine region of Bordeaux
World-renowned age-worthy reds, led by round Merlot (plum, black fruit) or firm Cabernet Sauvignon (blackcurrant, cedar, graphite), blended with Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot for tannic structure. Structured Médoc and Graves, velvety Saint-Émilion and Pomerol. Also crisp dry whites (Sauvignon/Sémillon) and opulent sweet Sauternes with honey and candied fruit. A 110,000 ha Gironde vineyard, 65 appellations, cradle of the 1855 classified growths.
The word of the wine: Tartar (deposit)
White, chalky deposits that occur as a result of precipitation inside bottles and are often considered by consumers as a defect. They are in fact tartaric salts formed by tartaric acid, potassium and calcium naturally present in the wine. This deposit does not alter the quality of the wine and can be eliminated by a simple decanting.
