Chateau Manos Cadillac

Château Manos has a beautiful golden color, remarkable finesse, and a touch of acidity that gives balance and character to the wine, which features aromas of honey, spice, and citrus. A sweet Bordeaux white from the Cadillac appellation on the right bank of the Garonne — Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc harvested late for natural concentration, with apricot, honey, peach, and a gentle botrytis richness. Lighter and more approachable than Sauternes, with good acidic lift.

PRODUCTION NOTES: Specifications call for entirely hand picked grapes and sales restricted to wine in bottles. About 80% of the grapes are botrytised, and the wine is fermented either in vat or in barrel. Château Manos is aged in barrels in Lamothe's underground cellars.
