A gift from Wendy and Hamilton......and we could wait no longer to share with you. We in NYC; you in Moriches (Mauritius), but the pleasure Joyce, Alex, Adam and I experienced drinking this 67 year old Sauternes is beyond a tasting note, beyond description. Words could never do justice to this end of Thanksgiving evening experience. Here are a few to describe this very golden brown caramelized glory.... honeysuckle, mango, ginger, cedar, creme brulee, macadamia,nashi pear, hazelnut, malt, champaca, and Spanish broom. I could go on, and this was a rare treat to share with my wife and sons at the end of the evening

The nose is quite honeyed and also has notes of tinned peaches and dried apricots as well as some truffle development. It is full, round and sweet in the mouth. The finish is gentle, but it still has good energy and excellent length.

dark golden nectar of apricot and peach cobbler delivered in a thick and creamy liquid coating the palate beautifully
