2001 Myrat - Sauternes Barsac, Bordeaux, France

2007 April - Although quite pale, the 2001 Myrat's hue looks deeper than the one of 2001 Suduiraut.
Open nose with quince, passion fruit and almond flavours. Powerful taste but overall the palate lacks of balance and freshness. Round and large body. Without the best of grip, but a good long flowery (jasmin tea) aftertaste.
