Once opened, sauterne is best stored in the refrigerator to maintain its freshness and prevent oxidation. Seal the bottle tightly.
Cooking Tips
Serve chilled, typically between 45-50°F (7-10°C), to enhance its sweetness and delicate flavors.
Sauterne pairs beautifully with rich pâtés, foie gras, blue cheeses, and fruit-based desserts like tarts and cakes.
It can also be a surprising complement to spicy Asian dishes, balancing the heat with its sweetness.
