Sauternes is the queen of dessert wines. No dessert wine, anywhere in the world, can match the refined flavors of a Sauternes. And this queen is produced by Mouton Cadet, the king of wineries. Founded by Baron Philippe de Rothschild, he was considered by many winegrowers, vinologists, and wine lovers to be the uncrowned emperor of international viticulture. Thanks to his insights, wines became available to an ever-wider audience, something for which we remain deeply grateful today.

The vineyards of Mouton Cadet Reserve Sauternes

Baron Philippe de Rothschild founded Mouton Cadet in 1930. With over 90 years of experience in winemaking, they have access to the finest and best vineyards. Every major commune in Bordeaux has its own vineyards, including Sauternes. A small commune, it's a crucial one for winemaking. Sauternes wines were first put on the map by the iconic Château d'Yquem. Today, many large wineries operate in this region, including Mouton Cadet. The descendants of Baron Philippe de Rothschild produce a near-perfect Sauternes.

The aroma and taste of Mouton Cadet Reserve Sauternes

Classic white grapes are used for Mouton Cadet Reserve Sauternes. Sauvignon Blanc plays a leading role, but Semillon and Muscadelle also play a significant role. The grapes are harvested when they are infected with Botrytis, a fungus that causes the grapes to dry out completely. Harvesting therefore takes place relatively late. Sauternes is only produced in the finest years. This bottle of Mouton Cadet Reserve Sauternes is therefore unique. The craftsmanship of Mouton Cadet has led our oenologists, for example, to place this Sauternes wine in their personal top ten. The aroma has a vibrant bouquet of caramel, pear, and smooth honey. A sultry touch of nougat, toast, and apricots is sure to bring a smile to your face. The palate is full-bodied: just as a Sauternes should be. A thick, creamy texture rolls over your tongue. Minerals alternate with sultry nuances of peach, cardamom, and honey. Craftsmanship that Baron Philippe de Rothschild would be proud of.
