Merchant's description
Château La Tour Blanche stands out among the classified growths in Sauternes as a unique property. It is state-owned and serves as the location for the La Tour Blanche School of Viticulture and Oenology. The 2010 vintage of its flagship wine is marked by a pronounced floral nose. On the palate, it combines notes of yellow and orange tropical fruits, followed by subtle notes of vanilla, honey, apricots, and overripe pineapple.
