Critics Ratings
'Like lemon curd on the nose, turning to honey and caramel. Full-bodied and very sweet, with fantastic concentration of ripe and botrytized fruit, yet balanced and refined. Electric acidity. Lasts for minutes on the palate. This is absolutely mind-blowing. This is the greatest young Sauternes I have ever tasted. Best after 2010.' - James Suckling, Wine Spectator, 100/100 (Sept 2004)
'Manages to be both tangy and luscious. Broad. Electric vitality. Lovely and slightly brûlée. Not quite as sweet as the Suduiraut. Long and reverberant.' - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 18.5/20 (Mar 2012)
