Make no mistake this is world-class. Robert Parker once described the sweet wines of Chteau Tirecul as among the most notable sweet wines from anywhere in the world. Les Pins is the estates organic entry-level cuve, yet it showcases the same finesse, balance, and pedigree that make Tirecul one of Monbazillacs finest producers.
Meet the producer
Chteau Tirecul La Gravire has earned a reputation for producing extraordinary botrytised wines from Monbazillac in South West France. With meticulous organic viticulture and a focus on purity, freshness, and balance, their wines consistently stand shoulder to shoulder with the greatest sweet wines of Bordeaux and beyond.
Production
While this wine could qualify as Slection de Grains Nobles, it is not always aged for the full 18 months required before release. With around 140g/l residual sugar, it achieves richness without heaviness, thanks to Tireculs hallmark acidity which keeps the palate fresh, lifted, and endlessly drinkable.
Tasting notes
A laid-back tropical style, with ripe pineapple and exotic fruit flavours balanced by zesty, mouth-watering acidity. Sweet, vibrant, and utterly moreish.
Food match
Perfect with delicate desserts think lemon posset or traditional syllabub or simply enjoyed on its own as a luxurious treat.
Grape
Semillon 60%, Muscadelle 40%
