Slight disappointment for me. Seemed short and without much complexity.

Golden hue. Creamsicle jumps out of the glass with hints of vanilla bean. Orange peel and tangerine emerge on the palate. Good viscosity but not as flashy as the others tonight.

The best overall older Sauternes yet in pairing with Wilson’s foie gras (this one is unusually mild and neutral). Also did well with the shrimp boil which was quite spicy. Lasted well for several days in Eto. Yum. Color was noticeably lighter than expected, including against younger vintages of this class.

Fresh, apricot, nutty and salty aftertastes. Pineapple, nice tension. Unbelievably young.
