Château de Fargues, located in the Sauternes appellation, is a wine estate renowned for the exceptional quality of its wines. Founded in the 17th century, it is the property of the Lur Saluces family, who notably managed the famous Château d'Yquem for almost two centuries. The Château de Fargues terroir benefits from an ideal microclimate for growing grapes, in particular thanks to the presence of morning mists which favor the development of noble rot, or Botrytis cinerea.

The 1997 vintage is considered a remarkable year for Sauternes due to favorable climatic conditions. The harvest is carried out manually, allowing only the ripest berries to be selected. The wine has an intense golden color, a sign of its aromatic richness. On the nose, it reveals complex aromas of honey, apricot, and white flowers, accompanied by notes of candied fruit.

On the palate, the Château de Fargues 1997 is both rich and balanced, with a beautiful acidity which brings freshness. Its creamy texture and lingering flavors make it a high-class wine, capable of aging magnificently. This wine is often enjoyed as a dessert, but it can also accompany savory dishes such as foie gras. Château de Fargues continues to represent the excellence of Sauternes, combining tradition and quality.
