Bought on auction recently. Medium amber colour. Apricot, dried peach, orange peel, butterscotch, burned sugar, light caramel, intense honey, and smoke, with good acidity, and good length. Smooth, full, oily and creamy texture. Looks more advanced than it should, but is quite enjoyable. That said, I liked the wine better on day one then on day two. Drink now.

10th of 12, pnp, perfect cork and level, more nuanced and attractive than last bottle in 19, possible upside, fresh but intensity of top vintage. Just about F (17.5).

Butterscotch, acetone, candied fruit. Tasty but maybe a little simple compared to other sauternes of similar age.
