Chateau de Malle Preignac 2001

A lesser known Château from the village of Preignac this certainly hit the spot when the price came through! I found good complexity of orange and lime zest, almond and strong Sauvignon notes on the nose. Fat, ripe gooseberries, a touch of star anise and firm but fresh acids make for a balanced and persistent finish. Up with the big boys! " A superb Sauternes, de Malles moderately sweet 2001 displays a light gold colour with some green tints. Honeyed citrus along with tropical fruit, peach crème caramel, and smoked hazelnut aromas jump from the glass of this layered, full bodied gorgeously pure and well - delineated wine. Moderately sweet, with impressive acidity as well as depth, it will be drinkable between 2007 and 2020." The Wine Advocate 2003. 90-94/100
