Description
Château Fayau is a beautiful chartreuse style building surrounded by vines in the heart of the historic village of Cadillac. The 85-acre estate has been in the Medeville family since 1826 who carry on the proud tradition of making sweet botrytised wines and a traditional red Bordeaux blend. The vineyards are planted with Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc, Muscadelle, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc vines.
The grapes were destemmed and fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks and lasted between 15 and 18 days. The wine was racked, blended and matured in underground tanks, preserving the pure fruit characters while capturing the nuances of the terroir.
