2022 Sauternes

Tasted April 2023. Lovely citrus peel, fresh pineapple and clementine flavours, this is very impressive. Only moderate botrytis influence on the nose, but plenty of richness in the style of the ripe fruit flavours. There are plenty of mineral notes, bringing some freshness to the wine and making it very clean and appetising on the finish.

Tasted April 2023. Some warm, ripe lemon along with orange peel and a pithy note. Hints of botrytis but the opulence is more driven by fruit ripeness than noble rot this year. There's a beautiful long, fresh finish and lots of floral complexity.

Tasted April 2023. Sweet citrus and some apricot fruit. Sweet on the palate but not overly so, retains some fresh fruit character. Nice seam of acidity throughout unlike other Sauternes this vintage. Not a lot of botrytis character but some savoury hints and marmalade.

Tasted April 2023. Very ripe, with a viscous texture and opulent, exotic fruit flavours with pithy notes as the palate continues.

Tasted April 2023. Attractive, fragrant nose with ginger, saffron, and honey on the nose. Lemon peel and juicy peach on the palate, with more ginger and honey adding to the viscous texture.

Tasted April 2023. 100% Semillon. Incredibly golden colour considering its youth. This has incredible concentration and purity, with masses of depth and richness. There are some mineral flavours and more bitter orange peel cutting through that, creating a balanced and beautifully long finish.
