Top Notes For
Stas Medvedev

Bright golden yellow color. Intense nose with dried apricots and grapes, flowers, honey, quince, bit of perfume. On the palate well balanced with medium weight, good length, elegant sweetness. Grapes of Sémillon 80%, Sauvignon 15% and muscadelle 5%. Estate is one of the oldest properties of Barsac – from the 15th century. Since 1971 belongs to Guignard family. 20 ha of vineyards are close to Garonne river and create an exceptional micro-climate for development of Botrytis. Producer is free to choose between Sauternes AOP or Barsac AOP for their sweet wines. Rating 4,0/5
