The wine region of Sauternes
Iconic Bordeaux AOC for noble sweet wines, left bank of the Garonne. Golden whites with signature notes of honey, candied apricot, exotic fruit, orange peel, saffron and a finish tightened by chiselled acidity, opulent yet nervy palate — a great age-worthy wine of emotion. Botrytised Semillon dominates (Ciron 'noble rot') concentrating sugars, Sauvignon Blanc adds vivacity, Muscadelle perfume. ~1,416 ha across 5 villages.
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: Sorting
Action which consists in removing the bad grains, not ripe or affected by the rot. We often use vibrating sorting tables which, by shaking, make the impurities fall to the ground. In the case of sweet wines, we speak of harvesting by successive selections, in several passages, to select the very ripe grapes each time.
