Sauternes / Barsac

£338 per 12 / £169 per 6
92-93 James Suckling "Very spicy with lots of dried-mango, apple and pear character. Full-bodied and very sweet and flavorful on the finish."
18 Julia Harding MW "Open and expressive with citrus, spiced pear and almond paste. Very sweet and viscous, generous, mouth-filling and still fresh. Delicious."

£420 per 12 / £210 per 6
94-95 James Suckling "This is very layered and beautiful with dried fruit such as lemons, apricots and cooked apples. Full body, sweet fruit and a long and flavorful finish. Tight and focused. Phenolic yet fresh. Crispy."
92-95 Wine Spectator "A plump, open and forward style, with lots of white peach, apricot and pineapple fruit flavors backed by creamed melon and honeysuckle notes. Very flattering."
