Monbazillac

Domaine de l'Ancienne Cure

Cuvée Abbaye Monbazillac White Blend 2001

Mesmerizing nose, crazy complexity, salty caramel, gunpowder, grilled peach, sweet tobacco, matchstick, marzipan and - as my daughter added pretty aptly - a whiff of 'honingdrop' (traditional Dutch honey/licorice-flavoured candy).
On the palate, these nuances are slightly less articulate and clear, which keeps me from throwing in an 'extraordinary' score. Highly recommanded, though!

I like the mention of your daughter. 😊Decanter paid attention in their August issue to the question how to introduce your children in wine - seems not so difficult to me 😂
