Community Tasting Note

86 Points

Friday, December 25, 2015 - Amber color with a bouquet and flavor of botrytis, but little else. Only modestly sweet. Lacking in definition, intensity, and nuance. Not very enjoyable, but I am beginning to think that I am not a fan of older Sauternes. I wonder what I will think of very old Sauternes?
