Cuvee des Seigneurs de Ribeaupierre.
Picked up a couple of bottles of this a little while ago on sale. Finally opened the first tonight.
Golden color.
Honey, flowers, spice and marmalade on the nose.
Oily and viscous, rose petals, lychee, orange-lemon marmalade, ginger, with some citrus rind bitterness toward the end. Iincredibly rich and intense, almost bordering on a dessert wine.
Wow. Quite possibly one of the best bottles of white wine I have ever enjoyed.
