Tasting profile (AI-generated)
Structure: full-bodied, low tannin, high acidity, sweet
A classic botrytised sweet wine from one of the lesser-known but respectable right-bank appellations of Bordeaux, Sainte-Croix-du-Mont sits just across the Garonne from Sauternes and produces wines in a similar style. Château Les Arroucats is a reliable small estate delivering the appellation's characteristic apricot and honey richness, underpinned by the bright acidity that Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc bring to keep the sweetness from cloying. Expect a luscious, approachable dessert wine — less opulent than a top Sauternes but genuinely charming and honest.
Serving: Serve at 8–10 °C.
