Tasting Notes :
The first nose of the 1er Cru Classé Sauternes presents of peaches, apricots and apples. The fruity parts of the bouquet are joined by more fruity-balsamic nuances. Exotic fruits and floral notes introduce a very balanced full mouthfeel, obtained thanks to a precise and demanding blend. It is a vintage of very high quality, expressing all the fineness expected from a great noble rot wine.
