Our Monbazillac barrels originate from the renowned appellation of the same name in the Bergerac wine region of Southwest France. Often referred to as the "little brother" of the famous Sauternes wine, Monbazillac offers a similarly rich and refined flavor profile. The wine's exceptional quality results from the mild climate and autumn conditions that promote the growth of noble rot (Botrytis cinerea) - enhancing sugar concentration and flavor depth in the grapes.
The wine is traditionally aged in French oak barrels, which perfectly complement and enhance its elegant aromatic structure. These used sweet wine barrels absorb intense flavors over time, making them an excellent choice for refining and aging spirits, brandies, and craft beer.
