Cérons
The smallest appellation in the Gironde, Cérons is a French white wine with protected designation of origin produced around Cérons in the Graves vineyards, one of the subdivisions of the Bordeaux vineyards. Its production area borders that of Sauternes. 
The Cérons appellation area covers the communes of Cérons, Illats and Podensac. The parcels are located on the left bank of the Garonne, in the Gironde department, some 30 km southeast of Bordeaux. The Cérons appellation forms an enclave within the Graves appellation. The vineyard comprises around 30 hectares in production. 
 Cérons wine can only be made from Semillon, Muscadelle and Sauvignon grapes.

Grapes must be over-ripe and harvested in successive selections. The must must contain a minimum of 212 grams of sugar per liter, and the wines must contain a minimum of 12.5% alcohol by volume. The wines are fine and elegant, but do not reach the concentration of Sauternes: they are lighter and more nervous. They can be kept for 5 to 15 years.

"A Cérons in all its splendour: fresh and balanced".

The 2018 vintage played with the team's phlegm. The first 6 months of the year were marked by incessant rainfall and mild temperatures. On July 15, the vintage took a 180-degree turn with a very hot summer marked by drought. The harvest lasted from the end of August to the end of October, with a very fine ripening of the grapes. grapes. The exceptionally long harvest, with no rainfall, made it possible to harvest à la carte. à la carte. In the cellar, the juices are very homogeneous and have a beautiful color. This is an unprecedented vintage which , despite despite the extreme conditions, in the tradition of great years.
