Château de Fargues 1988 (0.375 l)

" The estate describes this as the most elegant and racy of the trilogy, a late harvest saved by an Indian summer. (...) I just love this nose – a glorious bouquet of ripe Clementine, mandarin, a slight adhesive scent and dandelion. The palate is superbly balanced with a keen line of acidity, beautifully poised dried mango and mandarin flavors, plus a touch of white pepper enlivening the finish. There is a Barsac like quality to this most Sauternes of Sauternes! Drinking superbly now. Tasted April 2013."
