May 2, 2021 - This bottle was in pristine shape and neck level. Deep gold. Smell like Botrytised sweet wine! Caramel, honey, marmalade, apricot, wet stone, sweet spices and tropical fruits! Heavenly nose!
Dry with hint of residual sugar, the sharp acidity keeps it alive. Dusty, mushroom, botrytised notes with caramel popcorn and buttery flavours.
Amazing and rare classic! Ygrec at its best at 44 years old! -

July 29, 2017 - Truffles with the SLDS (CFs): Buter menthol, lemon, apricot, quince, nutty and spicy with a touch of caramel - still has fresh elements but really nice aged complexity here. Fruit sweetness still there on the palate, finishes dry and with good acidity present. Great length. Superb! A long way ahead of a bottle tried 7 years ago.

October 5, 2016 - Totoraku Night (Totoraku): My first time trying this wine. You can clearly taste its roots. It's like a friendly cousin to the sweet dessert Sauternes d'Yquem, but in a dryer form. Still a bit sweet for my liking as a white bordeaux to accompany the first courses of a meal. But a very impressive wine in its own right.

May 8, 2013 - Golden in color, nose full of honey and slight caramel. Lush and full palate, feels slightly off dry with slight botrytis note. A very appealing wine like drinking an off dry Dy'quem, lovely.
