Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate

(6-2014) The Chateau Gilette Creme de Tete 1967 is perhaps the wine that really convinced me how great this wine can be. It has the finest bouquet of several older vintages: tangerine, beeswax, pine needles and cumin, that opens wonderfully with aeration. The palate is beautifully balanced with allspice, dried orange peel, marmalade and white pepper. This is very harmonious and elegant with a long, tender finish not far removed from a Tokaji Aszu! Lovely.

Château informations

Gilette

Château Gilette is a property of 4.5 hectares located in the heart of the village of Preignac. Château Gilette is a small vintage Sauternes is legendary for its old vintages. In fact, at Gillette, Julie Gonet-Médeville does not sell his wines after twenty years of aging. . Chateau Gilette yields are extremely low, between 5 and 10 hectoliters per hectare and that nectar must be exceptional to merit the appellation "cream headache" and spend more than fifteen years in cement vats before being bottled and sold a few years later. .
