Wow. This Sauternes shows an amazing intensity of dried pineapple, mango and spicy botrytis. It really shakes you. Full body and very sweet, but with an intense, wild finish of everything. Speechless. Best ever from here. Hard not to drink it now, but better in 2020.

Pale lemon-gold in color, the 2011 Sigalas Rabaud is seductively scented of musk perfume, honeyed peaches and dried mango slices with touches of crushed rocks and brioche. Multilayered in the unctuously fruited mouth, it has a decadently satiny texture countered by seamless freshness, finishing long and savory. Drink Date2018 - 2034
