Ch Theulet Monbazillac - Futs des Chenes - Prestige
Located in the Bergerac region just west of Bordeaux lays the tiny Monbazillac district that specializes in late-harvest dessert wines. Made from Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadet, this botrytis or late-harvest wine (like great Sauternes), Monbazillac has a special production not commonly found in after-dinner wines. Although a white wine, Monbazillac is produced like a red wine, leaving the skins of the grapes in contact with the juice for a number of weeks giving particularly rich flavor elements. The juice is then fermented and aged in oak barrels for at least 18 months. Chateau Theulet is a wine with light gold color and a concentrated and complex nose of acacia, apricots and citrus fruits. A rich and voluptuous attack awaits the palate with flavors of vanilla and caramel. If you like fois gras, this is your wine. It is also excellent with any blue cheese or by itself as a "dessert in a bottle." MONB01 MONB01
