DonRocks Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 "The Bittersweet Tale Of Sauternes - Why Sauternes In Underappreciated" by Eric Asimov on nytimes.com "Are these prices for full bottles, or half bottles?" I asked. "Full bottles." "I'll take them all," I said, with an air of disbelief. This was just last week. It was the same damned thing with Port about 5-10 years ago, and Madeira about 10-15 years ago - Sauternes is seriously undervalued right now.

There are lots of good recent vintages floating around, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers2000 Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 I love Sauternes but haven't spent any time learning about it (my experience with it is really based on others ordering it)- any recommendations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr food Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 There are lots of good recent vintages floating around, too. What are your favorites? I've loved 2001, less so 2003-not for the long term, IMO. 2005 maybe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
