Two fine bottles that have passed the last 28 years quietly reposing, dreaming of Christmas 2016, when they may be at last allowed to entrance wise lovers of fine wines.

Pure apricots, candied orange, tangerine, pineapple and butterscotch custard all slathered with honey and spices. Concentrated, sweet, lush and lusty, this is delicious. Even the deep, orange, copper hue is a beauty. I am not sure this is a wine for that much more evolution, but as it is so delicious today, if you have a bottle and need a treat, pop a cork.

Deep gold in colour, butterscotch, tropical fruits, honey, apricot and vanilla scents were in abundance. Still young, sweet, fresh, and rich, this delicious, sweet Bordeaux wine is drinking great today.

Honey coated apricots, orange rind, caramel, vanilla, smoke, pineapple and spice are easy to find. Sweet, round and fully mature, this delicious Sauternes fills your mouth with layers of caramel coated oranges, nectarines and spice. There is no reason to wait to drink this wine as I doubt it will get better in time. Wines like this make me think I need to drink more sweet wines as they are unique.

This wine has the unique distinction of owning the most difficult name in Bordeaux to pronounce correctly. It's also an elegant, fully mature wine that delivers sweet, orange, pineapple, mango and nectarine with honey and toasted vanilla flavours.
