Château Suduiraut

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 2009

From a 0,375.
Dense and Impressive stuff.
Honey, tangerine, grilled nectarine, dried apricots, marzipan. Lots of spice like peppery botrytis, saffron and yellow curry. Striking resemblance with warm caramel/vanilla/creamy pastry like Pastel de nata!
Gorgeously rich, carressing, enveloping mouthfeel plus an endless finish.
So complex, yet so delicious.. Great!
Should drink Sauternes more often…

Château Haut-Bailly

Pessac-Léognan Grand Cru Classé Red Bordeaux Blend 2016

Medium ruby garnet , quite thin garnet rim . Quite open and inviting tobacco , red plum , cassis , earthy hints . On the palate this has good balance and a mineral , herbal hints, along with the mix of red and dark fruits . This has good fresh acidity and grippy but polished tannin . Good length and is showing quite well . Better in 5 or so years and will last well a further 10 . At Vinous Icons NY , Pier 60 , Feb 2025 — a month ago

Ancien Cru du Roy Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 2001

Prachtige Sauternes. Deze jaargang is geweldig, met een heerlijke balans door de mooie zuren. Waar ik over het algemeen geen groot fan ben van Sauternes, heb ik hier ontzettend van genoten! Gedronken om onze eerste plaats te vieren voor het NK blindproeven. — 6 days ago

From 750-ml, this great Sauternes is hopelessly youthful at age 25, dried apricot, great acidity, long, lingering finish, top notch!! — 9 hours ago

Graves Red Bordeaux Blend 2022

1st Growth Bordeaux comparison. Young, bold and bit more herbaceous than the rest and would benefit the most from good years lying down. Great potential. — a month ago
