Friarwood

Chateau des Comperes, 2003, 37.5cl

Owned by Patrick and Hervé Lamothe, this is a tiny property of 6ha situated in the heart of the Sauternais. Graves are normally Cabernet dominated but this particular vineyard is planted with 60% Merlot and this aspect is showing in the softness of this red wine.

Golden Yellow and sweet - typical Sauternes. Extremely dense intense flavourings. Roasted hazelnut, among, honey and dried apricots are the first impression. Then marmalade, pineapple, vanilla and golden syrup
