There is no second wine, one of Filhot's failings. Nevertheless, the result is a large production - de Vaucelles declares just over 6500 cases although some sources suggest the output may be almost double that - of fairly priced, widely distributed wine, which I suspect serves as an introduction to Sauternes for many. For some, those that find the richer wines of Sauternes simply too much, the lighter, fresher, less challenging Filhot may be the perfect after dinner wine
