Lovely and supple and fresh. Good depth. Citrus fruit with bright light sweet fruit.

FLN — From half-bottle, rich and unctuous, dried apricots and lovely floral notes as well, long, lingering finish, in a very good place for drinking now (at least in splits).

Dried apricot aromas and flavors, somewhat sweet yet great acidity still, another fabulous 2001 Sauternes, lovely finish to a lovely dinner with friends!! (From 375/ml.)
