A very nice, if quite "simple", Sauternes. Light flicks of saffron, cloudberries, golden delicious apples and honey on the nose. As expected a pure joy to dunk your nose into.
On the palate, enjoyable if not to say a bit mild. You get some apricot, a bit of sultanas and a dash of orange pulp, all round up in a ever so light shimmer of vanilla and honey.
There is a lot to be happy with when it comes to the 2016 Mouton Cadet Sauternes Reserve, especially for such an sympathetic price tag, but a bit more punch and acidity is missing for me.

It is a clasicc sauterner, it is a good wine. Sweet, high acidity. Intense yellow, almost gold. Smell like honey comb, and chamomile, with orange peel.
