CONFBASTORLAMONTAGNE
Château Bastor-Lamontagne is situated in the commune of Preignac in the heart of the Sauternes appellation.
« Nil sine Fide », the Chateau’s motto is a reminder of the noble past of Bastor-Lamontagne.
The property was part of the Royal domaines until 1711. In the 19th century, Mr Amédée Larrieu, who was the owner of Château Haut-Brion in Pessac purchased Bastor-Lamontagne. The Helfrich family who has been the owner since 2018 is writing a
new page in the history of this Grand Vin.
Today the dry white Grands Vins are part of the heritage of the Grands Vins de Bordeaux.
Confidence de Bastor-Lamontagne is the result of the search for an harmonious balance between the personality of a terroir, the know-how of the winegrower and the expression of the grape varieties.
Sauvignon Gris, which forms the majority of the blend, stands out with its aromatic power. Sauvignon Blanc is synonymous with freshness, finesse and liveliness, while Sémillon, harvested at ultimate ripeness (just before Botrytis appears), reveals all its roundness.
In the cellar, keen to protect the aromas in the grapes, the oenologist carries out a gentle pressing followed by a light settling under temperature control. Ageing takes place on the fine lees in 300 liter barrels, of which only one part is new barrels so that the freshness can be preserved.
The lees are stirred at regular intervals during the 8 months before the careful blending of these three Bordeaux grape varieties.
59% Sauvignon Gris, 34% Sauvignon Blanc, 7% Semillon
Tasting Notes:
A beautiful pale yellow color with slightly silvery nuances. The bouquet, which is lightly oaked, displays romas of mango, pineapple and vanilla. A fine palate, balanced, with notes of ripe exotic fruits and panettone with candied fruit, which reveals the vivacity typical of the Sauvignon grape variety. A ‘pleasure wine’ to be enjoyed for an apéritif or to accompany fresh and delicate dishes.
