Is Sauternes (Grand Cru Classé) a good wine?
Tasting profile
Full-bodied dessert Sauternes with pronounced honey, candied apricot, peach, and nectarine notes lifted by orange blossom, lychee, and ginger, framed by a touch of botrytis. Long, complex finish with youthful astringency that suggests further cellaring, while pairing beautifully with foie gras, duck, or veal.
