Voluptuous Sauternes, misses a bit of acid. Overpowering and missing some delicacy. Still great Sauternes, pale for 13 years of aging.

Moving. In a very good place now (even on a leaf day), with such great potential.

Good, not great, maybe it's still too young but it's missing the stone fruits and especially acidity I look for in any great Sauternes. Creme brûlée, toasted almond, and grilled pineapple dominate. Almost confectionary.

Lovely and balanced sweet white wine. Nice white fruit and mild and balancing acidity in the finish. Great with spicy food.
