Alcohol:
Tasting note: Medium yellow-gold. Incredibly sweet aromas of apricot, acacia honey and marzipan. Supersweet, round and fat, but with enough ripe acidity to leaven the wine's huge impression of volume. A powerfully fruit-driven Sauternes with superb depth, but it's almost too rich today. Finishes with palate-staining sweetness and length and surprisingly fresh acidity (I suspect the actual acid number is low). (92pts. Stephen Tanzer)
Tasted: Jul./Aug. 2008

Tasting note: Shows dried pineapple, honey, pear, caramel and piecrust aromas. Full-bodied and very sweet, with spice, coconut, tropical fruit and apple tart flavors. Long and dense, yet lively. (93pts. JS, Wine Spectator)
Tasted: Mar. 31, 2008
Score: 93
Drink: After 2013
Tasting note: Sustained yellow color followed by a nice fruity, candied nose. The entry is subtle, very fruity, with a taste of acacia flower. The wine is supple, dense and a little bit soft. Good length with nuances of butter. Delicious. (90pts. Jean-Marc Quarin)
