The golden wine flows through the Sauternes region, world-famous for its famous sweet white wines. The Sauternes region is crossed by the Ciron river. This modest tributary from the Landes region is ideal for astonishing canoe trips or delightful romantic strolls, but it also plays an essential role in the development of botrytis cinerea, which in autumn forms the basis of the great sweet wines described by Mauriac as “an exaggeration of the exquisite”.
The Sauternes region is a gentle discovery, rich in a thousand details, with its ubiquitous stone walls revealing the abundance of limestone just beneath the surface of the earth.
