The Médeville family has a long-standing tradition of winemaking in this appellation and today the family holds two Sauternes estates, as well as several others in Bordeaux and Champagne. The Médeville familly has its origins in Cadillac-sur-Garonne, on the right bank of the Garonne river (roughly opposite Sauternes), in the appellations of Cadillac and Loupiac. However, with the marriage of Numa Médeville to Marie Despujols (who had inherited the Château Gilette estate and the neighboring Les Justices site, which had been in her family since 1710), the Médeville family branched out into Sauternes in the 19th Century. The Médevilles nonetheless remained in Cadillac for almost three generations, and were still operating Gilette from the other side of the river in the early 20th Century. Numa's grandson, René only moved to Preignac in the late 1930s. René Médeville established the Gilette tradition of aging the grand vin in concrete cuves for between 15 and 20 years prior to bottling and release. The château – and the wider Médeville properties which includes Château Réspide-Médeville in the Graves – is run by husband-and-wife team Julie and Xavier Gonet-Medeville. Xavier Gonet hails from Champagne and his portion of family vineyards comprises the Champagne branch of the Gonet-Medeville holdings.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2024-03-21T10:36:20-04:00","created_at":"2024-03-20T19:02:45-04:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","NK180324","Other_Wine","Producer_Chateau Gilette","Region_ Sauternes","Source_VendorEmail0324","Type_Dessert Wine","Varietal_Sauvignon Blanc","Varietal_Semillon"],"price":93695,"price_min":93695,"price_max":93695,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44521508176010,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"1975 | Chateau Gilette | Creme de Tete Sauternes","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":93695,"weight":5443,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/61_0f42ffd4-cc72-4239-95f5-32d728767737.jpg?v=1710975841"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/61_0f42ffd4-cc72-4239-95f5-32d728767737.jpg?v=1710975841","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"1975 | Chateau Gilette | Creme de Tete Sauternes at CaskCartel.com","id":26527454593162,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.667,"height":900,"width":600,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/61_0f42ffd4-cc72-4239-95f5-32d728767737.jpg?v=1710975841"},"aspect_ratio":0.667,"height":900,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/61_0f42ffd4-cc72-4239-95f5-32d728767737.jpg?v=1710975841","width":600}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eDessert Wine: 1975 | Chateau Gilette | Creme de Tete Sauternes\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDark amber.
