About Sauternes

Sauternes is celebrated for producing some of the finest sweet wines in the world. Located in Bordeaux, the region’s unique climate and winemaking tradition create lusciously sweet, balanced wines with extraordinary aging potential.

Classification

This collection features Sauternes wines from Bordeaux’s top producers, including the legendary Château d’Yquem. Crafted from botrytized Sémillon, Sauvignon Blanc, and Muscadelle grapes, these wines offer unparalleled depth and complexity.

Highlights

  • Renowned Estates: Highlighting producers such as Château d’Yquem
  • Aging Potential: Sweet wines that improve for decades in the cellar
  • Perfect Pairings: Ideal with foie gras, blue cheese, or fruit-based desserts

Provenance & Craftsmanship

The magic of Sauternes lies in the noble rot (Botrytis cinerea), which concentrates the sugars in the grapes. Meticulous hand-harvesting and precise vinification ensure wines of exceptional richness and balance, with notes of honey, apricot, and citrus zest.

Pairing Suggestions

Sauternes wines elevate any meal. Pair them with savory options like foie gras, creamy cheeses, or sweet treats like tarte tatin and almond tarts for an indulgent experience.
