Opulent, slick, charming.
This classic Bordelais sticky (made from Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle) has a rich golden hue and concentrated aromas of orange blossoms, warm peaches and honey and distinct tones of lemon grass and sweet herbs, thanks to the Sauvignon Blanc. It is opulent, bordering on unctuous, with luscious peachy-apricot, candied lemon and honey flavours. Despite its seemingly lower acidity than is typical in this wine, it is slick and persistent and a charming dessert wine to pair with fruit tarts, ripe cheeses, and praline petit fours.
Serve chilled.
