Chateau d'Armajan des Ormes Sauternes 2003

Sauternes, Graves, Bordeaux, FranceApricot, floral, spicy, honey, waxy, vanilla, butter, egg yolk nose with some botrytis. Ripe, round, rich, elegant style with good concentration but a bit soft. Waxy, honey, apricot, buttery, vanilla, spicy, dried peach, guava and pineapple flavours. Good finesse and fruit if a bit heavy - could use a bit more acidity but normal for the hot vintage and delicious drinking now.Tasted: 24 August 2008Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
