Delicious dessert wine, this Sauternes from 2009 is just starting is life with lovely notes if dry pineapple, dry apricot, honey, citrus, candid orange and a touch of mineral, rich , creamy texture, sweet yet with lovely acidity. Delicious sweet finish. My score 90, drink to 2032

Jack & Arden put together a wonderful evening of delicious food and great wines, and a few of us attendees contributed some bottles to enjoy as well. Great night!

The closest I’ve ever been to having Chateau La Tour, ha! Young, dense and compact. Very bright fruits of pineapple and white peach on the nose and palate with a nectarine style finish. Not quite honeyed at this stage. Nice

Je me lasse jamais de boire du sauternes! Belle Tour Blanche en demi. À point avec le gateau au fromage en pot. Belle viscosité, caramel, vernis, pelure d’orange confite, longue finale. Bu sur 3 jours

Apricots, viscous, white peaches, just sweet enough. Delicious.

Deep golden color. Beautiful nose of condensed sweetness, gingerly spice, zest, honey, and dried apricots. Taste is very attractive, silly and dense, complex zest, oaky, spicy, and full flavors. Aftertaste is long and lingering, with sweet and spice dancing together as main tone.

Nice color of golden yellow. Nose of refreshing sweetness, lemon sugar, not edgy, round, and some oaky flavor. Taste of concentrated sweetness like caramel wrapped around your tongue and balanced with nice fruits notes like lemon and citrus. Aftertaste lingering sweetness, dresses with slight hotness of alcohol puts an nice conclusion in this pleasant bottle.
