This wine has a deep golden color and a lovely nose of honey, apricots, apples and earth. The sweet palate brings the apricot forward more and delivers a racy acidity that will make for a good food pairing - and not just for dessert, mind you. This will be a great sandwich wine, if you like a sweet accompaniment.

Nov 5th, 2018Here's a sweet wine that doesn't play that way. This late harvest Sémillon with 20% Sauvignon Blanc smells of honey and dried apricots. It comes off as more savory than sweet, and that’s reinforced on the palate. The acidity is fairly lively, too, so you can pair with foods, particularly a blue cheese.

Great alternative to Sauternes (grown right next door!). Less richness and depth, but well balanced
