APELLATION BORDEAUX CONTRÔLÉE, PRODUIT DE FRANCE, Süß Verkostnotiz Falstaff:Mittleres Goldgelb, silberfarbene Reflexe. Grapefruit- und Orangenschalen, weiße Blüten, feine Holzwürze. Saftig, stoffig, gelbe Tropenfrucht, feine Säurestruktur, mineralisch und gut anhaftend, sehr gut eingebundene Süße, sicheres Reifepotenzial, sollte sich noch auf der Flasche einwickeln dürfen. (2028–2060)Verkostnotiz Decanter:Full of pleasure, silky and richly textured, easy to sink into but carefully measured at the same time, addings its layers of orange peel, bloody orange, white pepper spice and truffle slowly but surely as it inches through the palate. Tiny floral notes accompany the saline minerality on the finish. Almost no botrytis in September, and then when the weather deteriorated at the end of September things really became a bit worrying. But they were able to hold on until October 19 (after stopping at the end of September, I imagine needing nerves of steel). Yields of around 8hl/ha. 3,000 cases of Suduiraut. 137g/l of residual sugar.A great example of what botrytis does - the pH is at 4, so the freshness comes from the bitterness of botrytis not high acidities.
