2025 Chateau La Tour Blanche (375ml) Pre-Arrival Offer

Chateau La Tour Blanche takes its name from the founder of the estate, Jean Saint Marc du Latourblanche, and is one of the most respected producers in Sauternes. The 40 hectares of vines used for their grand vin are planted in one large parcel with a prime location close to the Ceron river, and the soils are a mix of gravel, clay, sand, and limestone. Planted here is a combination of 83% Semillon, 12% Sauvignon Blanc, and an unusually high proportion of Muscadelle at 5%. The Semillon is aged in 35% new, French oak barrels for 16 to 18 months, while the Sauvignon Blanc and the Muscadelle are aged for 16-18 months in stainless steel vats before blending and bottling.

Other Reviews...
Full-bodied, with restrained sweetness that’s not excessive in any way, acidity that complements and drives the wine and a subtle saline touch.

Creamy really aromatic and fragrant, peach, pear, blossom, so fragrant. Lovely sweetness and cleanness with lemon, apricot, sweet pineapple, mango cinnamon and vanilla. Crisp, fresh, salty, sugary. Yum. Drink 2027-2045.
