SWEET - SAUTERNES

Sauternes is arguably the most famous region in the world for dessert wines. Wine is made from

Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc, and Muscadelle grapes that have been affected by Botrytis cinerea, also

known as ‘noble rot’. This causes the grapes to become partially raisined and covered with a special

mould, resulting in concentrated and distinctively flavoured wines. Only the affected grapes are

used, so every harvest it is necessary to make several passages in the vineyard to select only the

noble rotted bunches. The wines are then fermented in oak and aged for 12-24 months. Château

d’Yquem is the most famous wine from this region.

Chateau d’Yquem is widely considered as the

greatest dessert wine in the world. The estate is

located on the highest hill in Sauternes and therefore

benefits from the best growing conditions in the

whole area. The wine is made from 80% Semillion

and 20% Sauvignon Blanc. Only completely

botrytized grapes are harvested by a team of 150

pickers for 110 hectares. The yields are extremely

low; on average one vine gives one bottle of wine.

Fermentation takes place in 100% new French oak,

aged for 36 months.
