Sainte-Croix-du-Mont

Sainte-Croix-du-Mont is a French appellation for sweet white wines located in Bordeaux. Muscadelle, Sauvignon Blanc, and Sémillon are the principal grape varieties used in their production. These wines are usually deep yellow with golden highlights.

They are full-bodied, rich, and complex, with a great balance of sweetness and acidity, while the typical flavors and aromas include candied fruit, raisins, white flowers, honey, and acacia. Although less prestigious than the neighboring Sauternes, Sainte-Croix-du-Mont wines share a similar character and can also age well.
