"Finally, the 2016 Sauternes, from a fine but uneven vintage. As with many top wines of the region that year, this is light and delicate rather than rich and unctuous. Theres plenty of delectable honeyed sweetness, though, and so refreshing and lively is it that would it not suit the thirstiest athletic oaf, uh? I love it and served it the other night alongside a simple homemade pear almondine and both went down a storm."
Jonathan Ray, The Spectator Magazine

From one of the greatest sweet wine châteaux of them all.Complex with exotic fruit and citrus flavours, round and well balanced with along and lingering finish that shows off its immense pedigree.

How does the wine taste? Customer Reviews (0)
Still pale in colour, but starting to take on an attractive golden sheen. Striking aromas of apricot, peach and pear with pronounced honeyed notes. Certainly sweet, but not cloying, and perfectly balanced with a tangy preserved lemon and nectarine freshness. Intense tarte tatin flavours with a splash of crème fraiche, a hint of roasted nuts and a long, rewarding finish.
