The wine region of Cérons
Bordeaux AOC in the Graves (Cérons, Illats, Podensac, left bank of the Garonne, gravelly terraces, Ciron river favouring nocturnal mists and botrytis): Sémillon is the signature sweet white grape (~75%), complemented by Sauvignon (~20%) and Muscadelle (~5%) — fine and elegant profile with ripe fruit (apricot, peach), honey and flowers (acacia), rich and powerful mouthfeel with lively acidity. Lighter than Sauternes, harvested in successive tries.
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.
