Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend

Gorgeously honeyed nose. Loving the day and loving this.

Gorgeous. Burnt honey, dried apricot, smoked balsa wood, warm gravel. Full and rich, but actually not that sweet in the mouth. Great balance and a touch of bitter on the finish. So pleasurable.

High proof. Not much acidity Hay. Very little Botrytis.

A detuned version of the 89 Rieussec had previous to this without the complexity. Full bodied and sweet with some acidity.

Amontillado sherry oxidative nutty caramel thing goin on

Floral, beau gras, joli équilibre

My first Sauternes (!) - loads of honey and treacle. Very nice.

Sauternes rocks.

Golden hue. Aromas of apple, dried fig, golden raisin, honey, orange zest, peach. Full body and high acid. Mouth-coating and creamy texture on palate, with a slight mineral finish that begs for refills. Rich, decadent and delicious. 90% Semillon, 8% Sauvignon Blanc, 2% Muscadelle.

16.5/20 (91/100) Аромат абрикосового варенья, апельсинового мармелада, нотами корицы, ванили и ментола. Тельное с умеренной кислотностью. Во вкусе ярко проявляется карамельный тон. Неплохо. #dfwe2018
