Sunday, May 18, 2014 - Leo's Blind Tasting Group - May '14 edition (Ben's (NYC)): This comes across fresher and lighter on its feet than what I typically expect from most Sauternes; it's certainly quite sweet and intense, but there's really bright acidity beneath the ripe clementine, apricot and honey-tinged tropical fruit flavours. The botrytis here doesn't overwhelm, and it's one of the more light and elegant Sauternes I've come across in some time.
