Wine.comFruity, with lemon, apricot and lilac on the nose. Full-bodied, with a lovely intensity and bright acidity. Long and elegant. The palate builds on the finish. Not the 2001 (Wine of the Year), but very good indeed. Wine Spectator Barrel Sample. Score range: 92-94

jqspyv long finish and peculiar nose. good now but will develop. develops nicely over day 2 and 3. v good value for money and after opening up drinkable now. on day 6 still holding up fantastic. actually softer on the entry but continues to give an intense Sauternes pedigree. wow!
