April 13, 2024 - French dessert wine from Sauternes: Sémillon 95 % and Sauvignon Blanc 5 %. 13,8 % alcohol. Harvested at 4 selective pickings between 12 of September and 30 of October. Aged for 18 months in oak barrels (50 % new). Total Acidity, 4,2 g/l. Residual Sugar 150 g/l.
750 ml bottle. Consumed over two days. Each half of the bottle was decanted separately per evening and stored in the decanter during the evening of consumption.
Strong yellow-golden color.
Powerful aromas of hazelnut, exotic fruit, raisin, acetone, honey, earth, minerals and noble rot. Pure, rich and fresh flavors of pineapple, honey, lemon, hazelnut, earth, minerals and noble rot.
Sweet. Medium- body. Medium acidity. Excellent balance. Good structure. Good complexity. Pure. Very intense. Good concentration.
Very very long finish with honey, minerals and noble rot.
Day one: A great sweet wine. Rich, pure, intense, fresh and complex. Sweet but not heavy. The sweetness is very nicely balanced with acidity. A very nice pairing with Thai food (green curry with shrimps) but performs best alone. Performs good all the way from fridge to room temperature. Improves substantially with air. Will improve for many years in the cellar, but why wait any longer. 97/100
Day two: Riper, sweeter, richer, heavier, longer. More honey and exotic fruit. Saffron. An incredible wine, Ambrosia. 98/1001 person found this helpful Comment -

January 30, 2024 - I think this is my favorite estate in Sauternes when considering the value. At $35 for the half bottle, this over-delivers in spades. Superb.
