The sweetness of Chateau Gaudrelle
Sweet Wine
The Chenin is well known for its capacity to produce naturally sweet wines. Botrytis, also know as “noble rot” helps the grapes to get concentrated in sugar so they can provide wines with a good balance between acidity and sugar. Our sweet wines will give you the pleasure to drink a wine where the flavors of the matured grapes are offset with the freshness of the Chenin blanc.
