At a private lunch Greenslopes. While not quite the 2009 this remains a glorious bottle of Sauternes with a still pale straw yellow colour and a scented nose of mandarin rind, candied apricots and pineapple, vanilla bean and creme brûlée. The palate is glowing with Christmas fruits balanced with honey, citrus rind, spice finishing with a fine acid and mineral spine.

Lovely acidity and concentrated marmalade fruit. Long. This wine is getting better and better.

Beautiful sweet wine. Well developed Sauterne with deep levels of oaked honey, yellow stone fruits and luscious apricot and melon flavours.

달달하다. 산미는 별로 없음 혼자먹으면 질릴듯

Nowhere near as good as the '09 which sang like a bird. This feels slightly steely and medicinal.
