March 2, 2024 - Great wine. The color was pretty dark although he wine is not so old yet. But nose and palate were great. Dried apricot, candied orange, peach, honey. Very concentrated and powerful.

September 15, 2022 - A treat to end our SA tasting; honey and apricots, lush long finish; not quite the impeccable acidity you get on a great Sauternes. And you can buy three times the quantity of a good vintage of Ch Coutet for the same price.
