Golden in the glass Nose of marmalade, yeast and sunflowers. Rich, oily palate of apricot and stewed peaches. Quite long finish of honey and buttered toast. Sweetness is not overpowering and this is still nicely fresh. Not hugely complex but very pleasing and seems in it’s perfect drinking window.
Strong sense of honey and melon. A long, lingering finish. A bit more viscous than I remembered, and sweeter. Enjoyable, but there is little remaining acidity to balance out the sugars, so would recommend drinking now.

Here we go atruffling... (aka Piedmont... and Veneto); 11/16/2018-11/30/2018 (Alba, Guarene, Modena, Barolo, La Morra, Lake Garda .....): An interesting choice and always fun to see a Sauternes part of the way through the meal (I'm sure the head of Coutet who has often said it was for all parts would have been proud). This was meant I think to be the sweet fix to something that was a bit more salty and uname in style. Seemed to work alright.
