1997 Tour Blanche - Sauternes Barsac, Bordeaux, France

La Tour Blanche - 1er Grand Cru Classe - Sauternes
The French State owns this château. Very nice nose dominated by banana, honey, and fresh mint, nicely voluptuous. Very well made 97 La Tour Blanche with a accurate mouth, rich, wide and quite impressive (butter - roasted almonds). A first class wine for quite a cheap price. A real deal! 91/100
