Château Crabitan Bellevue

36か月の熟成が磨いた、黄金の甘み。

セミヨン92%にソーヴィニヨン・ブラン8%を合わせた、サント・クロワ・デュ・モンの貴腐ワイン。艶やかな黄金色から、アカシア蜂蜜や洋梨のコンポート、白桃やアプリコットの芳醇なアロマが立ち上がり、バニラやカモミールのニュアンスが重なります。とろりとした甘みとフレッシュな酸が調和し、36か月の熟成が奥行きを添えます。フォアグラのテリーヌやロックフォール、洋梨のタルトとともに。

Tasting note

A glossy golden colour. The glass releases rich aromas of acacia honey, pear compote, and the noble rot of white peach and apricot, layered with subtle nuances of vanilla, chamomile, and candy. On the palate, the rich sweetness and fresh acidity are in perfect harmony, and the richness of the ripe fruit and the clear minerality continue into a long finish. It is a sweet white wine that is not overly heavy, but is elegant and well-balanced. It is a flavor that suits a variety of occasions, from aperitifs to desserts.

Vinification
At harvest, the grapes are carefully selected according to the extent of botrytis (noble rot).
The grapes are pressed immediately after harvesting to preserve maximum aromatic freshness.
The juice is fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, where the temperature is kept at around 22°C to ensure a slow and steady fermentation.

The wine is racked three times to encourage natural and gradual clarification.
It is then aged in tanks for 36 months.
