Opened on Friday night this was an interesting botrytized sweet wine with a bit of barley sugar, decent but nothing special. 48 hours later kept in a domestic fridge it has some lovely pineapple fruit showing through. Quality now. Open at least a day before drinking.

Hints of pineapple, aniseed and honey on the nose. Also dried apricot on the palate, with smooth, well balanced acidity and sweetness. This vintage should age nicely for a good few years. But is equally drinking well now. Comfort wine. Excellent, 89.

Well balanced grapfruit and melon, and deceptively full as the sweetness tails off...

Smooth & silky. Vieilli bien en plus. Équilibré, mielleux, subtil. Rien n'accroche.

Slightly lacking in complexity but a good, straighforward, wine and good value.
