The elegance of a Sauternes wine crafted by Château Liot
The estate
Located on the Haut-Barsac plateau in the Bordeaux region, Château Liot covers around forty hectares. Run by the David family for several generations, the estate officially belongs to Jean-Gérard David. Certified High Environmental Value (HVE) since 2020, this renowned property combines respect for biodiversity with traditional methods to produce wines of great consistency. The estate stands out for its ecological commitment and uninterrupted family heritage.
The vineyard
The 24 hectares of vines dedicated to the Sauternes appellation thrive on the Haut-Barsac plateau. This terroir benefits from a soil composed of red clay resting on fractured limestone, promoting natural drainage and deep rooting. The average age of the vines is 35 to 40 years. The proximity of the Ciron river creates an ideal microclimate, alternating morning mists with sunny afternoons, essential for the development of noble rot.
The vintage
The 2025 vintage stands out as a particularly brilliant year. Weather conditions were extremely favorable, allowing exceptional development of the Botrytis cinerea fungus on the berries. The growing cycle concluded with harvests spread out from September 16 to October 8.
Winemaking and aging
The grapes are hand-picked, with three passes through the vineyard to select perfectly concentrated berries. Alcohol content: 13.5% vol.
Grape varieties
Sémillon (80%), Sauvignon (15%), Muscadelle (5%).
