Château La Tour Blanche 2017 is a sweet white wine from Sauternes, in the Bordeaux region. Coming from a vintage characterized by favorable climatic conditions, it is mainly made from emblematic grape varieties of the region: Sémillon, Sauvignon Blanc, and a little Muscadelle. This wine is the result of a late harvest, when the grapes are affected by noble rot (Botrytis cinerea), a process which concentrates sugars and develops complex aromas.
Château La Tour Blanche 2017 has a bright golden color, which will tend towards amber as it ages.
On the nose, Le Château La Tour Blanche 2017 is intense and expressive, and is marked by aromas of exotic fruits, candied apricots, honey , and white flowers, with subtle notes of spices and vanilla, often linked to aging in oak barrels.
The palate is rich and creamy, with a beautiful aromatic complexity. It reveals flavors of ripe fruit, honey, and sometimes nuances of caramel or beeswax. The wine presents a remarkable balance between sugar and acidity, providing a pleasant freshness which counterbalances the sweet side and avoids any heaviness.
Château La Tour Blanche 2017 has excellent aging potential. It can evolve and improve in the cellar for several decades, developing more complex tertiary aromas over time.
This Sauternes goes wonderfully well with fruit desserts, apricot or pear tarts, and also goes very well with foie gras. For lovers of contrasts, it can also be enjoyed with blue or blue cheeses.
In summary, Château La Tour Blanche 2017 is a complex and harmonious sweet wine, whose aromatic richness and freshness make it a beautiful representation of the great Sauternes.
