  Wow, what a lovely Sautern for this Price.
  Intensive taste of Apricot, Peach, oak and a lot of honey. Finish is just awesome and stays for the rest of the evening. Perfect to drink now, can’t get better

  Bought two demis at auction this year - can’t attest to storage conditions. One is amber in color, the other (consumed) is considerably more mahogany. Strong aromatics of tobacco-infused maple syrup that are mirrored on the palate along with an unusual but pleasant hint of cherry liqueur. No other fruit character of note. Viscosity is smooth, but not to the point of syrupy texture. Sweetness is medium+ by Sauternes standards. Overall, it’s slightly past peak and is unlikely to improve with time, but is still drinking well now. Pair with dark chocolate or crème brûlée, but nothing stronger than that.

  Solid Sauternes. Great with tarte tatin matches the apple and caramel flavours superbly. Can take more age doubt it will do much to it
