November 20, 2012 - Sauvion wines with the importer and Pierre-Jean Sauvion (Stockholm): Nose: yellow apple, ripe fruit, hints of honey, slightly spicy, discrete flowery notes.
Palate: some sweetness of fruit going almost in the off-dry direction, ripe yellow apples, some honey, high acidity, a hint of spice and hints of mineral. Aftertaste with apple and grapefruit.
Summary: young, 85 p.
This wine was slightly surprising, because it was produced in another style than the other Sauvion wines, less dry and firm. It is not difficult to find a Vouvray that come across as considerably drier than this, so it wasn't in the style I expected. -

November 12, 2012 - Mandarin notes lead to a slightly dehydrated fruit attribute. Viscosity sweetness with tangerine and turkish delight. Beautiful concentration, higher glycerol notes with delightful honey acacia characters.
