Monbazillac is an Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée for sweet white wine produced in the village of Monbazillac on the left bank of the Dordogne River just across from the town of Bergerac in South West France.
The AOC of Monbazillac was first established in 1936, but the area has a long history of sweet wine production. Only wine made from grapes grown in Monbazillac that are affected by the “noble rot” (Botrytis cinerea) can be sold under the Monbazillac designation. The luscious sweet wines of Monbazillac are second only to the best sweet wines of Bordeaux and are a great alternative to much pricier Sauternes.
Chateau Theulet consists of 36 ha and belongs to the 6th generation Alard family. They are best known for their botrytis Monbazillacs, which are barrel fermented. Their Monbazillac is a blend of 80% Semillon, 10% Sauvignon Blanc and 10% Muscadelle.
