Holy Cross of the Mountain
This Entre-deux-Mers appellation lies across from the Sauternes region, about 40 kilometers south of Bordeaux. The entire Sainte-Croix-du-Mont appellation covers 450 hectares of vineyards, situated on a plateau formed by fossilized oyster beds from the Tertiary period. The soil of Sainte-Croix-du-Mont is stony, clay-limestone, which allows for the production of great sweet white wines. The vineyard is planted exclusively with white grape varieties, dominated by Sémillon, along with Muscadelle and Sauvignon.

Vineyard management and winemaking methods are similar to those of Sauternes, with the presence of Botrytis at harvest. Sainte-Croix-du-Mont produces wines with a golden-yellow color and aromas of raisins, figs, acacia, and apricots. The palate, complex and intense, reveals a certain freshness that balances the sweetness.
