5/3/2024 - jonathankay2 Likes this wine: 96 pointsFantastic, drinking perfectly. Intense, incredible nose: orange, dried apricots, mango, pineapple, some but not overwhelming oxidative notes (coffee), some kind of beguiling hay/chamomile/floral thing I couldn't put my finger on. |

5/2/2024 - ricard Likes this wine: 98 points[DELETED EXPLETIVE]. So intense and assertive. Exploding with energy. Nutty and oily, viscous yet dancing with lightness, and every fruit on the planet concentrated in one jewel of unspeakable intensity and breathtaking beauty. Staggering and spectacular. 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

5/1/2024 - vvWine.ch wrote: 94 points93-95 Punkte. Duftig, kühl, steinig, exotische Frucht, Safran; dichter Gaumen, ohne jegliche Schwere, cremige Textur, delikate Frucht, präzise Säure, mineralisch geprägtes Finale. Ein hocheleganter Süsswein, mit viel Eleganz. (En Primeur Tasting April 2024) |

4/27/2024 - SurgeL Likes this wine: 86 pointsA lovely dry sémillon. Nothing exuberant but enchanting of buttery notes and honey with just a touch of acidity. A well-crafted and original product. I drank two bottles and enjoyed the last one over several weeks. A welcome change from ubiquitous chardonnays and sauvignon blancs. |

4/25/2024 - KingsIndian Likes this wine: 92 points'Left-field' whites (TWS North London) (Must and Lees, Liverpool Road): Lovely anise/fennel and herbs on the nose - perhaps thyme - followed by a luscious, medium-bodied mouthful with honeysuckle, orange blossom, and honey on toast. Much like another dry 100% semillon I had recently, this is exactly like a dry Sauternes, and a very good thing. |

4/19/2024 - anthroman wrote: NRTropical fruits, flowers, oranges, and botrytis on the nose. This was really balanced on the palate with that Climens acidity coming out more over time. Candied bitter orange peels on the finish really tied up this package well. (From .375) |

4/16/2024 - Richard P Howden wrote: NRFascinating and fun to drink. Nose of burnt orange, honey, caramel. Very dark color but palate has med+ weight, burnt honey, anise, robust nicely balanced finish. 96 but still a real wine that has so much pleasure to give still. Far less sweet and syrupy than its 1986 sibling at the table. 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

4/16/2024 - aagrawal wrote: 94 pointsDinner with the wine group (La Bohème, Palo Alto): From a 375mL. Fabulous color, golden-orange; orange peel, citrus, slight grapefruit; palate is medium-full bodied, vibrant medium-plus acidity throughout, balanced alcohol(12.5%?), off dry sweetness; finish is long. This is a superb wine with plenty of growth ahead of it. 94 |

4/16/2024 - aagrawal wrote: 95 pointsDinner with the wine group (La Bohème, Palo Alto): Deep tawny, high shoulder, fairly good condition; aromatic, some crème brûlée, slight caramel, brown sugar; palate is medium bodied, dry, some botrytis, caramel without being sweet, touch of brown sugar; long finish. Absolutely wonderful, incredible balance, stage 4 Sauternes with basically no sweetness but lots of flavor. Lacking the intense complexity of top wines like the ‘67 Yquem, but an exceptional experience and a good purchase from K&L. 94 |

4/7/2024 - drjb Likes this wine: 96 pointsAt Home Dinner.This wine opened beautifully with a developed amber orange colour and a nose of orange and lemon zest, candied grapefruit, apricot conserve and honeyed pineapple . The palate reflects the complexity on the nose and the richness is balanced by lovely matiere and grip that provides terrific length that persists beautifully on the back palate. There is a persistent touch of honey and creme brûlée that really lifts this wine. |

3/29/2024 - Cremuel Likes this wine: 94 pointsBob’s cellar. Golden brown, crystal clear. Sweet brown sugar, warmth of honey, apricot, brisk and supportive lemon/lime oil acidity. Unctuous honey spooled with lime and lemon oils, sweet apricots and splash of jasmine. Wow! Lovely. Not sweet, poised and not acidic either- all tremendously balanced. Very very good sweet French dessert wine. |

3/30/2024 - Sun_Ship Likes this wine: 94 pointsCharming, fragrant nose of orange marmalade, quince, blossom and stem ginger. The palate is intense, with vibrant fruit, racy acidity and suggestions of honey, ginger and caramel. Exceptionally harmonious and rounded out with a gloriously long finish. With rhubarb and fennel millefueille. |
