Classic Sauternes, treading the fine line between sweetness and elegance. Initially, it seems to be dominated by the botrytis, but then sweet fruits also show, with ripe yellow fruits, honey and almonds, touched with citrus. As it develops, the wine will become richer and more intense.

94-96 Big, concentrated botrytis flavors, layering the honey with the rich dried fruits. This is a powerhouse of a wine, densely structured.

89-91 Dryness and structure dominate this wine. But there is good potential, it has layers of botrytis, which are good, and there is richness under the structure.

The dry botrytis flavors dominate this wine, the sweetness masked by tastes of almonds, honey and spice. The dryness continues right through to the end, leaving spice, marzipan and freshness over richness.

93-95 Barrel sample. A powerful wine, its botrytis character dominant. But there are complex flavors underneath, the fruits ripe, impressively concentrated.

The wine starts lively, almost fresh. Only after a while in the mouth do you taste the intense richness underneath. The structure is of pear skins, with white fig and sweet dried apricot syrup. The botrytis, dry at the heart of the wine, gives the whole ensemble great balance.

* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012

Packed with botrytis, this is a wine whose sweetness is suppressed by richness. Flavors of bitter oranges and white figs go with the intense core of botrytis, followed by a touch of bright acidity. This is a wine whose journey is just beginning.

84-86 Barrel sample. Firm and ripe, with dry botrytis dominating the spice, this is an uncomfortably hot wine, packed with flavors that are somewhat overblown.

95-97 Barrel sample. Very gold in color, this is a wine that seems initially closed, tight, only slowly showing its full panoply of richness, density and sweet final acidity.
