Blanc Sec de Suduiraut
FRANCE: BORDEAUX - WHITE - SAUTERNES
Size750MLVintage2020SKU30032
The 2020 Blanc Sec de Suduiraut is creamy, expansive and very pretty, all of which make it a real delight to taste. Pear, almond, dried flowers and mint build effortlessly in the glass. The Blanc Sec is a consistently delicious, enticing wine, and the 2020 is no exception.
Chateau Guiraud Sauternes
FRANCE: BORDEAUX - WHITE - SAUTERNES
Size750MLVintage2009SKU16535
Wine Spectator #5 of 2012. 96 POINTS! This is a bird of a different feather, with an exotic, vibrant aroma of toasted coconut, followed by an almond cream note that gives way to the core of green fig, papaya, Cavaillon melon and honey. There's stunning richness and mouthfeel, with the power to be one of the longer-lived wines of the vintage. Very impressive. Best from 2015 through 2040. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 11,000 cases made. JM
Chateau Guiraud Sauternes
FRANCE: BORDEAUX - WHITE - SAUTERNES
Size750MLVintage2005SKU7956
Delivers lots of botrytis spice, with lemon tart and cooked apple. Full-bodied, with loads of cream and vanilla and an intense tropical fruit and honey aftertaste. Long and viscous, with a layered and beautiful spicy finish. 97pts Wine Spectator (2005)
Chateau d'Yquem
FRANCE: BORDEAUX - WHITE - SAUTERNES
Size750MLVintage1983SKU16015
The 1983 ranks among the most concentrated wines from this property over the last 25 years, with a staggering display of extract and a mind-boggling amount of glycerin. The vintage commenced early for d'Yquem, beginning on September 29th and finishing on November 18th. The 1983 is enormous, with huge, honeyed, pineapple, coconut, and caramel flavors, massive extract, and an unctuous quality barely framed by acidity and new oak. The wine has changed little since bottling. Anticipated maturity: 2000-2050. 96 pts. RPChateau d'Yquem Sauternes
FRANCE: BORDEAUX - WHITE - SAUTERNES
Size750MLVintage2005SKU20366
This has a deliciously pure feel, with juicy, inviting green plum, ginger, heather, creamed pineapple and Jonagold apple flavors all melded together and gliding through the lengthy finish, which echoes with lilting flowers and dried citrus notes. 97pts Wine Spectator (2005)
