Dessert Wine

Aromas of mango, orange and turkish delight. Marmalade and grapefruit characters results in appealing citrus lift. On the palate, rounded and luscious with flavouirs of marmalade and ripe tropical fruits. Grapefruit and honey characters are supported by fresh citrus flavours. A full flavoured, well balanced wine with velverty mid palate and clean citrus fruit.

Yellow-gold colour. Medium to high intensity of hazelnut, lemon and stone-fruits on the nose. The palate is medium-full bodied, sweet, medium-high acidity, intense honey, nutty, apricot flavours with a long finish. Pair with baked pears, foie gras, Stilton.

Dark gold in colour, nose of lime, acacia, candied orange with, on the palate, a hint of plum. This wine is fruity and dynamic, and as it gets older, it acquires elegance, body and hints of candied fruit. Great as an aperitif, it traditionally goes with foie gras and blue cheese.

Full, rich, balanced, slightly oily palate. Peaches and apricots. Lovely, with elegance alongside the richness.

Brilliant golden colour. Superb nose showing strong botrytis characters. Aroma of honey, apricots and spice overlaid by super ripe peaches. The palate is still youthful and has the structure to live for many years.

Bright straw colour, a discreet nose, on the palate ample with citrus, apricots and marmalade balanced by a refreshing acidity.

This wine is simply stunning and is far better than many of it's neighbours over the river.

Intense aromas of dried lemons, honey and apricots follow through to a full-bodied, dense palate of very sweet fruit that shows masses of dried fruit characters. Last a very long time on the palate.

Light golden with just the slightest tint of green, the 1983 Rieussec, from an excellent year for Sauternes, is certainly one of this property's greatest wines. Well structured with excellent acidity, and a deep, long, rich, full-bodied, viscous texture, this wine, despite the richness and power, is neither heavy nor cloying. It has gorgeous balance and a very long, lingering, spectacular finish. One of the great successes of the vintage.

This dessert wine comes from one of the top producers in the southern Rhone. Honeyed and rich, this is truly bottled sunshine.

An exclusive declassified Sauternes from the greatest estate in the region. Chateaux that do not have a second wine often declassify the production that does not quite make it into the final selection of the Grand Vin. Naturally we cannot reveal the name of the Chateau in question but rest assured that this little beauty will not disappoint! The 2009 vintage was a great one for Sauternes, on a par with 2007 and 2001, and capable of ageing for 30+ years.

Classic toffee, caramel and cold tea aromas and flavours, then a pleasingly fresh, almost dry, finish.
