TASTING NOTES
A golden-coloured wine highlighted with amber tints. The expressive bouquet harbours all the notes typical of the best sweet wines – candied fruit, a touch of exoticism, pineapple, mango and floral notes. After the already seductive nose, the palate displays remarkable balance between richness and freshness, the back-of-palate lingering with notes of candied orange and tropical fruit. A very beguiling wine which leaves no doubt as to its cellaring potential. Delicious as an aperitif or to accompany a relaxed meal with friends.

TASTING NOTES
An appealingly golden-hued Sainte Croix du Mont with a generous, complex nose of bitter orange and jammy fruit, great finesse and a hint of minerality. On the palate, the silky attack soon gives way to remarkable freshness, and a finesse that continues well into the aromatic back-of-palate. Long finish on notes of jammy fruit and vanilla. Served very chilled, it promises a deliciously fresh and fruity tasting experience.

TASTING NOTES
A beautifully brilliant, golden hue. The nose opens up to reveal a generous bouquet of bitter orange and candied fruit with a hint of mango, while on the palate a fine balance is struck between sweetness and acidity. This wine offers all the complexity typical of great dessert wines, with creamy extract offset by fine freshness. It will be even more delicious after a few years' bottle-ageing. Drink very chilled.
