Michael Schuster: Mid-gold; dense coconut and citrus to smell; rich, unctuous, concentrated yet remarkably elegant Sauternes. Intensely sweet, vivid, and racily complex, with a particularly fine freshness and definition. Long to taste; long and complete and consistent to finish. A very fine Sauternes; a very fine La Tour Blanche. 2018–30+. 18/19+

Michel Bettane and Thierry Desseauve: Possibly our favorite wine tasted on the day. Above and beyond its prodigiously rich sweetness and its perfect balance, it is developing an aromatic charm and finesse that have no equal. It’s practically at the same level of purity and brilliance as Yquem. 19
