Cypress de Climens Sauternes 2007
Coravin allows access to these style of wines rarely opened if not with a dinner party or holidays.
(from 375ml)
Color, aroma and palate have started to move into secondary tertiary. Texturally thick, creme brulee, roasted cashews, candied orange, and honeysuckle. Good complexity but the freshness of the last bottle is buried by the deeper flavors and texture.

Liquid gold! Peaches, apricots, vibrant acidity leads to fantastic freshness.

Drank 4/26/18 at a tasting event.
2nd wine of Climens. Nose of pineapple and honeyed apricots, with some slight volatility that blows off after a few minutes. Flavors of pineapple and some light honey, without the depth or richness of the Climens. Decent wine, but would vastly prefer the Doisy Vedrines for around the same price.
4/22/7/3/3 +50 = 89 pts.

A sweet Bordeaux, pairs perfectly with Foie Gras.
