Château Villefranche White Sauternes 2020 - 37.5cl
Description
Golden in color, with a fragrant and complex nose of vanilla, apricot, peaches and preserved white fruits.
Highly concentrated with great acidity and balance, this wine can be consumed young, or stored for aging in a cool wine cellar to increase its complexity.
Château Villefranche is listed among the oldest properties in Sauternais.
It has been in the same family since the mid-17th century and listed in the Feret editions archives since 1840.
Located on the Haut-Barsac plateau, the vineyard has a wide variety of soils with clay and limestone predominating.
Winemaker Benoit Guinabert, grand in stature and talent, continues the quality work carried out on the property for generations.
Characterized by frank aromas of cooked fruit mixed with intense notes of tropical fruits and hints of honey, Château Villefranche speaks of its exceptional terroir,
100 meters from the famous Sauternes stream: the Ciron. It is Ciron who creates the conditions of fog and humidity that allow noble rot to develop.
The structure in the mouth is very fine, the attack is frank and the whole is very balanced. The time spent in barrels brings a beautiful complexity, both aromatically and in terms of taste.
A fortified wine perfect as an aperitif or as a dessert wine.
