About this wine
Château Lamothe Guignard is a classic sweet Sauternes made from Sémillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle. Noble rot, often central to this region, typically brings concentrated notes of apricot, honey and candied citrus. Its rich, full texture is lifted by marked acidity, keeping the sweetness bright rather than heavy; the exact balance can vary with the vintage.
