On the tongue, this well-balanced white wine is characterized by an exceptionally silky texture. On the finish, this wine from the Bordeaux wine-growing region delights with considerable length. Once again, nuances of apricot and pear appear. In the aftertaste, mineral notes from the soils dominated by gravel and sand join in.

Vinification of Château Thieuley Sauvignon

The starting point for the first-class and wonderfully balanced Sauvignon cuvée from Château Thieuley are Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon grapes. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in Bordeaux. Here the vines sink their roots deep into soils of sand and gravel. After the harvest, the grapes are brought to the press house as quickly as possible. There they are sorted and gently crushed. This is followed by fermentation in concrete and small wood at controlled temperatures. After the end of fermentation, the elegant Sauvignon is aged for another 12 months in oak barrels.
