Some green reflections sparkle in the golden color, the sign of a beautiful vivacity. The nose is marked by light citrus notes supported by a good woody character. On the palate, we find vanilla notes offering the wine a lot of roundness and charm. A little time will allow it to reach a perfect balance. Guide Hachette 2022 1* The very smoky and downright flinty botrytis totally dominates the nose, then fresh and linear with a building flavor and a saline juiciness that makes the lips smack in the long run. Almost too saline in fact, to the point that it became too angular and fruit-deficient with aeration. Maybe all it needs is a little time to settle in. I would give it the benefit of the doubt. Drinking window: 2025-2038. Score 91+ Ian D'Agata

Tasting

When ?
A well-balanced Sauternes will be drunk at any time. Very resistant to alterations, only 1 bottle can be kept for several weeks. On your deckchair while reading a book or by the fire in winter. Also ideal for your social and cultural events (exhibitions, openings...). A young Sauternes will drink quite fresh, an older one can drink at room temperature.

How ?
Small piece of foie gras on a fig, goat cheese, roquefort cheese, cheese, salads, seeds (walnut/ignon/kernel/hazelnut). Sea side: (sole, scallops, mussels, oysters, lobster). Its sweetness will soothe game. Desserts on fruit and acidity will also be appropriate. Roasted poultry, sweet, salty and spicy dishes. Last conclusive experience: a Roquefort pear pie and some nuts.
