1986 Chateau Climens Sauternes-Barsac Barsac, France WB Rating: 92 Alcohol by volume: 14.0% Price at time of purchase: $0.00 (Library wine) Type: Sauternes Principal varietal(s): Sauternes blend Decadently delicious aged Barsac. Possessing a beautiful medium amber color, this profound wine has transcended the easy fruitiness of youth and evolved into a tremendously rich and complex classic. Intense honeyed Botrytis up front along with sensationally rich pineapple, apricot, liquified almonds, and a melange of other tropical fruits and spices. Perfect acid balance keeps this wine from being remotely cloying. This is a deep, weighty, complex, majestic dessert wine. - HK, GK 2006-06-15 [Back] |
