June 12, 2021 - Absolutely stunning. Dark golden. Beautiful nose and palate full of complexity (caramel, chocolate, marmalade). A bit metallic taste in the end that seemed to disappear with decanting.

August 1, 2010 - First time drinking La tour Blanche, when opening the bottle, we discovered that the wine was reconditioned at the estate in 2006. Even if 1969 is not known to be a good year, i really enjoy old Sauternes and the typical candied fruits notes. Enjoyable wine.
