Notes of marmalade, honey and quince jump from the glass is this tremendously god value Monbazillac. The acidity is balanced and well integrated with the fruit concentration. Noticeably sweet but not to cloying in any way. A great partnering for Fois Gras or soft cheese, without the price tag of a Sauternes. L&S (Sept 2022)

This is my very favourite Monbazillac of all, and it is one of the finest value sweet wines in France. Organically grown and made precisely in the same method as Sauternes, this is a heavenly combination with the superb Layer cake recipe.Matthew Jukes www.matthewjukes.com (May 2022)

Château Tirecul la Gravière

Monbazillac is well-known in French history. The vineyard is planted with a high percentage of Muscadelle (50%), along with Semillon (45%), and Sauvignon (5%). These grapes are picked grape by grape (as they develop the noble rot), not by bunch. The proprietors, Claudia and Bruno Bilancini, actually pass through the vineyard a minimum of four to five times a day. It is an understatement to say these are the greatest wines I have ever tasted from Monbazillac; in fact, they are among the greatest sweet wines I have tasted ... from anywhere! "Robert Parker"
