BUY THE WINE

Andrew Jefford: Bright mid-gold. Subtle, penetrating linden aromas over a murmur of honey: attractive. Lush, creamy, and full, with some fresh lemon acidity for balance: subtle and well-crafted Sauternes with a little more concentration than many of its peers. Now to 2024. 87

Stephen Brook: Lively apple and quince nose, with aromatic charm. Lean attack, fresh and zesty, with a silky texture and a welcome brightness of fruit. It is not heavy on the botrytis, but it has lift and poise, balance and length. A very good Filhot. 90
