About the wine
A special 37.5cl bottle of top-shelf Sauternes from one of the region's most prestigious estates
-
We’ve managed to snag a parcel of meticulously crafted top-shelf Sauternes from one of the appellation’s most prestigious estates. This golden nectar has enjoyed the same special care that goes into producing France’s best, most expensive dessert wines. So at this price, it’s an absolute steal.
-
Super-sumptuous Sauternes like this is highly-prized around the world for its sweet, concentrated flavours. It’s a many-layered attack on the senses, with expressive aromas of pure honey, dried fruit and citrus notes, with a rich yet refreshing mouthfeel that’ll make your taste buds sing.
-
Our top tip to enjoy this wine at its very best… chill it right down before serving, then savour with a mega cheese board - loaded with everything from your nutty Swiss to the stinkiest blue. The sweetness of the wine cuts through the savouriness of the cheese and transports you to dessert wine heaven.

Serving advice
Open/decant 20 mins before serving at 10-12°C
Food match
The classic pairing for a Sauternes if foie gras. But it's similarly incredible with a seasonal fruit salad or blue cheese, for example. It also works a dream with creamy desserts like a cheesecake, creme brulee or lemon tart.

Meet the winemaker - Naked Marketplace
Every week, on our travels or back at HQ, we come across wines that taste amazing but weren’t made for us by Naked winemakers
At the price and quality, we wouldn’t be doing our job if we didn’t make them available to you. So we list them without a winemaker or a story under Naked Marketplace
They’re generally parcels and one-offs, so once they’re gone, they’re gone!
