Roumieu Sauternes 375 ml

Roumieu Sauternes 375 ml

$29.99

The Romieu family have farmed their plot of land in the coveted Sauternes since the 18th century. A classic Sauternes defined by its botrytis-infected grapes, this wine features rich textures of peach, mango, and pineapple, complemented by subtle undertones of chamomile tea and dried herbs. Smoky nuances and white pepper spice blend seamlessly with balanced acidity for an appealing finish. Botrytis cinerea - aka Noble Rot- is a necrotrophic fungus that affects grapes, effectively turning them into raisins on the vine. Someone figured out that you could still press those grapes, yielding a sweet honeyed nectar that's capable of ageing for one hundred years or more.  Made with 80% Semillon and 20% Sauvignon, it offers notes of peach, mango and pineapple flavours in a rich texture with hints of chamomile tea and dried herbs. Smoky notes with white pepper spice mingle with balanced acidity in the appealing finish. Great value for Sauternes of this calibre.
