A barrel-aged sweet wine made using only botrytized Chenin Blanc grapes. It's been over 20 years since the vintage, giving time to slightly subdue the sweetness and develop intriguing tertiary characteristics. Lovers of Sauternes and Tokaji will dig this.
Notes of melon and grapefruit, nestled in a tropical warmth, with a subtle herbaciousness and sharp minerality that make it a great summer go-to. Pairs well with fish.
Saillard's top cuvée, Blank is made from 70-year-old vines in the fabled Clos Roche Blanche vineyard. This, along with the Gaudry Sancerre, is our best Sauvignon Blanc. 2023 was a small harvest, so get these while you can.
