Duc de Castellac Selection de Grains Nobles Monbazillac AOC 0,75 ℓ

Duc de Castellac's Monbazillac Selection de Grains Nobles comes from the wine-growing region of Bergerac, located in the south-west of France. Monbazillac is one of the most famous French sweet wines: it is a liquoreux wine, that is a wine with a marked sweetness but at the same time of excellent structure and softness. It is obtained from a refined blend of Sémillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle grapes, harvested entirely by hand once the bunches have been completely covered with the noble mold Botrytis Cinerea. After a slow pressing of the grapes, the must ferments for a long time at low temperature. Subsequently the wine ages for a medium period in which it evolves in body and complexity. It is a golden yellow wine with bright flashes. The nose is intensely floral, of great elegance. In the mouth it shows an intense and composed sweetness, with fruity hints. Ideal as an aperitif, it goes splendidly with marbled blue cheeses and fresh fruit tarts.
