Wine from Sauternes
Filter
Sauternes region of France, just slightly South of Bordeaux, which is most recognized for producing superior sweet wines. Sauternes cultivates and produces the most famous and premium dessert wines. Grapes grown in Sauternes are mainly Semillon, but one can also find small amounts of Sauvignon Blanc, Muscadelle, and Sauvignon Gris. Semillon allows for a full bodied structure with notes of stone fruit, honeysuckle, and beeswax in Sauternes wine, while the Sauvignon Blanc gives earthy tones to the nose and valuable acidity for freshness. Traditional wines from Sauternes are a rich deep yellow color and increases to a rich tawny when aged in the bottle. Sauternes winemakers have a particularly interesting method of producing such fantastic dessert wines, botrytis. Under ideal circumstances, the grapes will be subjected to “noble rot” where the fungus dries out the grape and naturally concentrates the grape’s sugar content. Sauternes climate of dewy early daytime effects combined with temperate and arid afternoons gives the best environment for botrytis to form. Appellation laws in Sauternes regulate the harvesting of the grapes when they reach a weight of 221 grams per liter. Sauternes carry a very high risk in production due to the longer periods on the vine, allowing fungus to form, and lengthy time in a barrel. Good vintages that rely on nothing but nature for the sweetness and flavor are extremely prestigious and often come with a higher price tag.

St. Supery Dollarhide Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is made from 98% Cabernet Sauvignon, 2% Petit Verdot.
This Cabernet Sauvignon presents with deep, dark reds and purples. Aromas are opulent with ripe blackberry, black plum, cassis, chocolate, and toasted oak. A rich, dense profile follows with flavors of cassis and ripe black fruits, espresso, mocha, and molasses with subtle oak in influence. It is a deep, structured wine with excellent fine-grain tannin.
Review:
100% estate-grown single vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon hails from the winery’s Dollarhide Ranch. The property is known for its steep rolling hills—reaching upwards of 1,100 feet—as well as some flatlands and seven lakes rife with wildlife. Aged for 20 months in 100% French oak (54% new), the wine offers a broad and generous mouthfeel with chewy tannins. The fruit is ripe and almost gobby, becoming more streamlined as it opens up. Dark berries are lush and sweet with hints of brown sugar. Acidity and chalky lift are well defined and have the mouth imploring for that next sip. Refined, elegant, polished, and poised

Fefinanes Albarino de 1583 Albarino is made from 100% Albarino.
Aged for 5 months in oak barrels (a combination of fine-grained American and French Allier barrels).
1583 is the birth date of the Viscount of Fefinanes, Gonzalo Sarmiento Valladares, builder of the Castle of Fefinanes, in Cambados.
They wanted to pay tribute to their ancestor with this wine that managed to reach a perfect harmony between the fruitiness of the Albarino grape and the complexity brought by the oak aging.
Lovely straw yellow color, clean and bright. The nose is reminiscent of ripe crystallized fruit and spices. The palate is elegant, round and well balanced, with a silky texture.
Excellent with shellfish, grilled or stewed fish, white meats, poultry.
