Description

Appearance
Golden amber with slight copper highlights at the rim, showing attractive maturity for an 18-year-old sweet wine. The color signals gentle oxidation typical of aged Monbazillac, without detracting from visual appeal.

Nose
Opulent aromas of dried apricot, candied orange peel, honeycomb, and light floral notes. Subtle hints of toasted almond, beeswax, and soft spice add depth, while maintaining an aromatic sweetness that is classic Monbazillac.

Palate
Lusciously sweet and full-bodied, with ripe apricot, orange marmalade, and honeyed citrus balanced by crisp acidity. A delicate mineral edge keeps the richness from becoming cloying, while layers of gingerbread, candied peel, and soft spice develop across the mid-palate.

Finish
Long, harmonious, and lingering, with notes of dried fruit, honey, and gentle caramel. The finish shows elegance and balance, demonstrating the wine’s ability to age gracefully while keeping freshness.

Condition

Excellent
