The Sauternes Lur Saluces A.O.C. 1997 from Chateau de Fargues is a rare gem in the world of sweet wines, embodying elegance and sophistication. This Sauternes, hailing from the prestigious area of the Bordeaux region in France, is produced from a skilful late harvest, where the grapes are left on the vine until October or November to benefit from the noble Botrytis cinerea mold, which concentrates sugars and aromas, resulting in wines of extraordinary complexity and longevity.

The year 1997 is considered one of the exceptional vintages for Sauternes, and Chateau de Fargues has splendidly capitalized on these favorable conditions. On the nose, the wine reveals a rich and enveloping bouquet, with notes of candied fruit, acacia honey, dried apricot, and subtle hints of sweet spices, like ginger and vanilla. On the palate, the wine displays an impeccable balance between sweetness and freshness, with a rich array of flavors that echo the nose and a persistence that pleasantly lingers.

Ideal as a meditation wine, the Sauternes Lur Saluces 1997 is also a perfect companion for foie gras, blue cheeses, and fruit-based desserts. Its aging capacity is remarkable, able to evolve and improve for decades under proper storage conditions.

The pairing of this wine with characterful foods and its complex aromatic profile make it a valuable addition to any wine collection, destined to delight the most discerning connoisseurs.
