Top Notes For
Lucky enough to have been invited to pillage the cellar of an old friend and came out of it with a 1975 and 1986 ch Rayne-Vingneau Sauternes. Both wonderful but the 86 was stunning, everything a late harvest wine can and should be. Fresh herbal aromas of tarragon, camphor, menthol and almond oil. Honeyed dried apricots in mid palate with do much more . Clean mineral and mediciinal finish. Very lush and lithe. Truly a standard bearer.
