A Sauternes wine combining richness and complexity
The property
The Château de Rayne Vigneau is located in the town of Bomme, overlooking the Sauternes appellation. Established in the 17th century, the estate has passed through the hands of several illustrious families such as the Pontac family, intimately linked to the great wines of Bordeaux. Today, the château belongs to the Trésor du Patrimoine group.
The vineyard
The Rayne-Vigneau vineyard spans some 84 hectares on a single hill overlooking the Sauternais. This vineyard rests on a mosaic of terroirs. On the heights, one finds clay-gravel soils, while at lower altitudes, the vines are planted on clay-sandy soils with lacustrine limestone subsoils. The vineyard is managed using reasoned agriculture with intra-parcel management.
Blend
This Château de Rayne Vigneau 1998 is the result of a blend of sémillon and sauvignon blanc.
