Is Sauternes a good wine?
Tasting profile
A rich, full-bodied botrytized Sauternes with a deep golden color, showing pronounced notes of dried fruit, fig, sultana, and stone fruit alongside honey, vanilla, and sweet spice. Lush sweetness is balanced by notably high acidity, with the Semillon character coming through clearly on a long, structured finish.
