Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, July 9, 2013 - This was my first experience with this special cuvee. I hope it will not be my last as this wine is a stunning example of Sauternes. Deep in color, the aromatics are intense with their honey drenched apricot, pineapple, caramel, custard and spicy notes. Thick, rich and intense, yet perfectly in balance with ample sweetness and acidity. Drink it now or age, this is a stellar juice!
