The Château de Rayne Vigneau 1989, Sauternes Premier Grand Cru, comes from the gravel and clay soils of Bommes. A blend of Sémillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle, this sweet wine reveals aromas of candied fruit and honey. A balanced, mineral and lively palate. Ideal now with foie gras or apricot tart.
A historic estate rooted in the heart of Sauternes, where exacting standards and terroir have shaped exceptional sweet wines for centuries.
- Terroir : 80 hectares of gravel and clay in Bommes, the cradle of Bordeaux's grands crus classés, where morning mist encourages noble rot.
- Vinification : A meticulous blend of Sémillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle, aged 24 months in barrels for a silky complexity and mineral tension.
