Monbazillac, to the southwest of Sauternes, is home to sweet wines that can rival those of their famous neighbors.

Desprès is a biodynamic grower who, without question, is currently producing wines that could easily embarrass the classified growths of Sauternes and Barsac in a blind tasting. A gorgeous wine with suggestions of brioche, wild honey, sea salt and candied quince.
