Dessert, Fortified & Fruit Wine by Ch?teau d'Yquem from Sauternes and Barsac, France - Bordeaux. The history of Yquem (like its wine) keeps a mystery even today. If the vineyard has been existing for a long time, the present castle is rather quite recent (the oldest parts date from the...

Dessert, Fortified & Fruit Wine by Ch?teau d'Yquem from Sauternes and Barsac, France - Bordeaux. Beautiful brilliant golden color. Concentrated bouquet of ripe fruit (mirabelle plum, apricot and mango) and dried fruit (fig, raisin and quince), followed by hints of white fruit (pear and...

Dessert, Fortified & Fruit Wine by Chambers Rosewood from Victoria, Australia. My notes essentially read the same every year, even though the bottlings are non-vintage and I taste the most recent releases. Consistency and greatness are the norm at this Rutherglen winery. The average age is 7-10 years for the regular cuvees, about 70 years for the grand cuvees, and the ancient rare cuvees date back to soleras from 1890. It is redundant to keep repeating the same tasting notes, so readers will have to take my word for it ... this is one of the world's most remarkable dessert wines, and is worth every effort to latch on to a half bottle or so. - Wine Advocate

Dessert, Fortified & Fruit Wine by Ch?teau d'Yquem from Sauternes and Barsac, France - Bordeaux. With six waves of picking spread over seven weeks and twenty-five working days, the 2004 vintage was complex, but well-rounded. It reflects the full gamut of Yquem's terroirs.

Dessert, Fortified & Fruit Wine by Ch?teau Rieussec from Sauternes and Barsac, France - Bordeaux. 2005 was marked by drought. Only 127 mm of rain fell during the winter, and following a month of April with some more rain (129 mm), the dry weather began again at the end of May. The summer...
