    Description

    An expressive and beautifully complex Sauternes wine

    The property

    The Château de Myrat is a family estate established in the Sauternes appellation. The wines from this Grand Cru Classé of Sauternes are appreciated for their balance, elegance, and refinement.

    The vineyard

    Château de Myrat is a Sauternes wine from a 22-hectare vineyard located in Haut-Barsac, a clay-limestone plateau on fractured limestone.

    Vinification and aging

    Manual harvest by successive sorting. Vinification by daily batches. The fermentation is carried out in barrels, as is the aging (30% new barrels) for 18 months.

    Blend

    Sémillon (88 %)
    Sauvignon blanc (8 %)
    Muscadelle (4 %).

    Characteristics and tasting advice for Château de Myrat 1997

    Tasting

    Color
    Its pale yellow color with amber reflections reveals a clear and bright wine.

    Nose
    The nose, of great complexity, opens with subtle aromas of linden, acacia honey, gingerbread, and nutmeg.

    Palate
    The palate is seduced by its roundness and silky texture, developing flavors of candied fruit and dried apricots in the finish. This vintage, with its finesse and balance, stands out for its delicate and feminine character. The whole, ample and generous, ends on a spicy finish dominated by ginger and orange zest.
