and easily has another decade of prime drinking

Virtually all of the 2011fruit was pressed directly to enhance clarity and vivacity

Past its best though

The 1989 Latour shows similarly to the bottle earlier this year

It is strict but detailed even if not the most complex bouquet you will encounter in this vintage

Raymond Lafon other_regions_australia and easily has another decadeThis is one of the best 1985s I have tasted from Sauternes. It is rich and full, and although there is a general absence of any botrytis, the quality of the fruit is impeccably high. There is plenty of citrusy, pear, peach, and apricot scented fruit backed up by some vague notes of roasted almonds. This is a delicious 1985 that should evolve gracefully. Anticipated maturity, Now 2002. Last tasted, 3 90.
