This fully organic Sauternes half bottle from Nicole and Christian Ferbos is a luscious golden blend. Said to produce the most floral style of wine, which they converted to organic methods in 1994. It’s irresistible – wonderfully apricotty, rich and honeyed with delightful vanilla and marshmallow hints arising from 6 months in new oak barriques. Great with most puddings (but not chocolate), blue cheese and pâtés.

Christian Ferbos took over his parents’ estate in Preignac in 1973 and a year later met Nicole, a bank employee. When they married she gave up banking to dedicate herself to the winetrade. They enlarged the estate and after several years realised that a switch to organic methods might help the deterioration of their vineyards. It did! Christian’s recent death left her determined to continue on the path they had chosen together.
Vineyard size 7 hectares. Organic since 1996.
