Ginestet Sauternes Classique 2024

Ginestet Sauternes Classique shows exactly why this corner of Bordeaux is so revered for its sweet wines. A beautifully balanced blend of Sémillon, Sauvignon Blanc and a touch of Muscadelle, it’s made from hand-picked grapes affected by noble rot, concentrating their natural sugars and flavours into something truly special. The aromas are inviting — honey, saffron, and orange blossom with touches of apricot and candied citrus. On the palate, it’s luscious and silky yet lifted by a clean thread of acidity that keeps everything in perfect harmony. This is classic Sauternes — indulgent but elegant, luxurious but never heavy. It’s wonderful on its own or with crème brûlée, fruit tart, or blue cheese, and offers an affordable taste of French winemaking tradition at its finest.
