Sauternes AOC 2011 Château Laribotte

Château Laribotte was born in vineyards located in Preignac, the area of choice for the production of sweet Sauternes wines, south of Bordeaux.

It is mainly produced with Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle grapes, harvested by hand in three steps with careful selection of the bunches, after the grapes have been attacked by the "noble rot" Botrytis cinerea . Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 20 ° C. Subsequently the wine ages for 24 months in cement tanks and for 12 months in cask, before being bottled.

Château Laribotte Sauternes has an intense golden yellow color. The nose opens with a bouquet characterized by notes of candied fruit and toasted. On the palate it is expressive and beautiful, with hints of honey, white peach and apricot, with hints of vanilla and orange in jam at the end of the mouth.

Perfect to accompany dry sweets and pastries, this Sauternes is ideal in combination with foie gras, cheeses and white meat dishes.
