Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 2001

Tonight's foie gras and Sauternes tasting: my rank 2 of 4. Group no. 3. Light amber glow. Tight at first but unwinds to caramel aromas and hints of brininess. Stylish viscous mouthfeel with soft salted caramel flavors. Thick lingering finish. — 10 years ago
