2007 Cuvée d'Exception, Dourthe, Sauternes, Bordeaux

Description

Showing fragrant honeysuckle and crème brûlée on the nose, with attractive medium weight in the mouth and very good concentration, this had me hankering for a slab of Stilton or Roquefort or anything pudding related!  The palate exudes lovely honey and sweet ripe peach followed by a delicious and refreshing finish. Brimming with charm, drink it now ...Y wait!!
