A rich and concentrated dessert wine from the neighbouring village of Saussignac, Cuvee Flavie is made from Chenin and Semillon grapes affected by noble rot and aged in barrel for 20 months. Like a classic Sauternes, this elegant dessert wine has a concentrated, luscious character, intense rounded sweetness yet it is balanced by good acidity on the finish. Perfect for after dinner cheeseboards.
