Description
Chateau Gravas was founded in 1789 and has been in the Bernard family for five generations. It is currently owned by Michel and Florence Bernard.
The name “Gravas” comes from “graves”, a gravelly soil that perfectly suits the production of Sauternes wines.
The estate is superbly located in Barsac between Chateau Coutet, Chateau Climens and Chateau Doisy-Daene. The total production is 2,000 cases/year.
A blend of 95% Sémillon and 5% Sauvignon.
The wine shows a lovely pale golden color with deep golden highlights, and it offers aromas of candied fruits backed up by a hint of exotic fruit (mango, guava). On the palate, it is ample and fleshy, leading into a silky and long finish.
Pairs with Foie Gras, Roquefort Blue Cheese, Chocolate desserts in general.
