Tasting Notes

A little smoky and indistinct on the nose - smudgy. Rose-petal scents. Very heavy and sweet. Super rich. Thick and dense. BIG!!!!!! GV

Score: 17 - 18

A brilliant combination of power and finesse characterizes this light green/gold-colored Barsac. It possesses moderate sweetness, terrific aromatics, and a full-bodied, rich, beautifully delineated, ethereal palate revealing delicacy as well as acidity. Although young, it is already strutting its stuff. Consume it over the next 15-25 years.

Score: 93
