When you first think of bordeaux, you think of dry red wine, but sauternes are perhaps the most famous sweet white wines in the world. With grands terroirs, Dourthe presents wines from the great, famous regions of bordeaux. Sauternes is one of them. It is golden, velvety with the plump, fragrant taste of honey, marmalade and nuts, among other things. All those nuances are the result of a happy coincidence. When the grapes are ripe in autumn and the mornings are misty, a benign fungus attacks the grapes. The grapes shrivel, the juice becomes thicker and rich in aromas. This delicious wine is made from it. Of course it goes with sweet, but try it with something savory like blue cheese or pate.
