Crème brûlée, lemon, a bit syrupy. In a good spot.

A blend of 75% Semillon, 23% Sauvignon Blanc, & 2% Muscadelle. Golden with complex aromas, somewhat Riesling like, and adding a tropical bouquet. On the palate this botrytis rich wine shows apple, pineapple and honeysuckle flavors. Lingering finish ending with smoky vanilla notes. Had this at tasting and bought a few bottles! Will contine to age in the bottle. Nice!

Stunning and youthful. Grilled pineapple, apricot, lemon zest, nectarine ... The flavor nuances are endless. Very sweet (162 g/L!!) But so well balanced with acidity and depth of flavor. A beautiful Barsac and it will keep almost forever

75/23/2 Semillon/Sauv Blanc/Muscadelle. High intensity, long finish. Stewed apricot, honey, dried mango, FRESH mango, pineapple, clove. Young Botrytis. Elevated acid, medium dry/sweet? Gold in color. “Closed and tight”

Love this producer. Lots of pineapple, stone fruit and marmalade. My third favorite Sauternes producer.

Half bottle. Lovely! Thick and concentrated flavors of peach, marmalade, and melons. Glad I have another full size one a home.
