The geographical position of the estate, just 800 meters from the cold waters of the Ciron river and the warmer ones of the Garonne, is the basis of the peculiar microclimate, with morning mists alternating with clearings. This is the ideal condition for the development of noble rot, a phenomenon caused by the fungus
Botrytis cinerea that leads to a progressive dehydration of the grapes and consequent concentration of sugars and aromas. The harvest is carried out in small batches and in several passes, selecting from time to time the grapes affected by noble rot. The fermentation and aging phase of 18-24 months in French oak barrels is then fundamental, able to confer further complexity to the wine.
The Sauternes of Chateau du Mayne La Merci is a sweet botrytized wine that reflects the qualities of the type, namely richness, intensity, and elegance. It is a perfect wine to accompany blue cheeses or spoon desserts.
