Information on the vintage : A great vintage. Monumental Sauternes following a long hot summer with some rain just before the harvest to flesh out the heat-concentrated grapes, retaining their high sugar content. Information on the wine : 35 (04-1994) Fairly deep amber-gold ; barely sugar and lemon curd, dry finish.
