SF | Soft gold, pale at the rim; the nose betrays pineapple, orchard fruit and hints of butterscotch and fig; the palate is not marked by botrytis, and as a result cloys a little , with the sweetness not striking an ideal harmony with the latent acidity. The result, for all that is accomplished and pleasing, with fruit, acidity and sugar all nicely held in check and the resulting wine harmoniously composed. 90
AJ | Bright mid-gold. Lush, sweet and honeyed, with a creamy note beneath. Very gratifying and sensually enticing. Vivid acidity almost has the upper hand in this generous yet elegant dessert Barsac. The texture is open-pored and the style both vibrant but accessible. Look out for almond and marzipan complexities behind the honeyed apricot fruits.Drink Dates: 2025 - 2034.
