GRAPE: Semillon
REGION:France, Bordeaux
 
This richly golden Sauternes presents aromas of apricot, honeyed citrus, dried pineapple and acacia blossom, with hints of ginger and sweet spice. The palate is lusciously smooth, with marmalade, candied peel and toasted almond flavours, all held in balance by vibrant acidity and a long, lingering finish. It’s decadent yet refined, with excellent longevity.
 
FOOD PAIRING: Classic pairing of foie gras or duck liver pâté, blue cheeses (Roquefort, Stilton), crème brûlée or tarte tatin, almond biscuit or nut-based desserts, or seared scallops with glazed citrus.
