The Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey 2017, Premier Cru Classé of Sauternes, expresses a terroir of gravel and clay. This sweet wine, made from Sémillon (95%) and Sauvignon Blanc (5%), offers notes of honey and candied fruits. Balanced and mineral, it pairs beautifully with foie gras or fruity desserts.
Nestled in the heart of Sauternes, this historic estate embodies the excellence of Bordeaux sweet wines, shaped by an exceptional terroir and a centuries-old tradition.- Terroir : 37 hectares of gravelly and clay-limestone soils, bathed by the Ciron, conducive to noble rot and the expression of a unique minerality.- Vinification : Patient aging in French oak barrels, combining technical precision and respect for the fruit, for cuvées of rare elegance.

Serving temperature: 8–10°C – A Sauternes-style white wine glass to concentrate the aromas.
