Lush tropical fruit, candied citrus and a gentle coconut creaminess glide together in Chateau La Tour Blanche Sauternes 2022, lifted by bright acidity that keeps all that sweetness humming rather than heavy. The texture feels generous and satin-like, with spice and a touch of minty freshness giving the long finish a playful kick. It comes across as a bold yet finely tuned dessert wine, already hedonistic but clearly built to age.
Roquefort cheese; Lemon tart; Foie gras torchon

Château La Tour Blanche Sauternes is a Premier Cru Classé sweet white from Bommes in Bordeaux, crafted mainly from Sémillon with smaller portions of Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle, all harvested in multiple passes to capture noble rot. Grown on a high, gravelly hilltop overlooking the Ciron and Garonne, it typically shows rich layers of candied and exotic fruits, honey and spice, yet is noted for its balancing freshness and long aging potential.
