  Tom's Edinburgh Offline (Number One Balmoral): Deeper gold than the Madeira. Aromas of golden syrup, like brown sugar on porridge when you were at school, warm bread pudding or spotted dick fresh from the oven. Figs, raisins, vanilla custard, marmalade and candied orange. Sweet, rich and round, but the quite lively acidity keeps this a point and in check. Very very long, and quite delicious. Why don't I drink more Sauternes?

  This is tremendous…is it at its prime? Always difficult to know. Could this get better? I’m hoping it will. One more 375 ml is in my cellar and my plan is to hold off for another year. It’s interesting how some wines on CellarTracker increase as a wine ages. The scores on this Suduiraut have increased with age and seem to be hovering in the mid 90s. My hopes are that in a year it will at least be the same or slightly better. Cheers!

  Epic! A truly wonderful way to celebrate the holidays. Sweet, seductive nose of candied caramel wrapped around hints of stone fruits and pretty florals. Mouthfeel is lush, creamy, and viscous, which coats the mouth with a palate of sweet caramel and marzipan along with florals weaved throughout. Beautiful, big and lenghty finish! Cork was fragile, and required a Durand to extract it cleanly.

  Excellent Sauternes that is in its prime (at least out of a 375ml). Tons of marmalade, saffron, honeysuckle, and spices on the nose and palate. Rich, unctuous texture with enough acid to balance out the RS. Finish goes on forever. Had a bottle about 3 years ago and this one is showing much better. Wish I had more.

  Classic representation of aged Sauternes. Notes of honey, orange marmalade & rind and salted caramel. Great acid backbone to balance the palate weight and long finish. Drinking great now and will for a long time to come.
