2001 Castelnau
Does anyone know this wine? According to vintage charts, 2001 Sauternes
are supposed to be excellent, but still young. Does that apply to this second label (Suduiraut)? I bought a 375ml bottle today from a local merchant for US$24. I love Sauternes but I can't make the down payment on the good stuff. Thanks. Andy |

I bought 6 375 bottles of this this summer. Have not Tried.
When recommened to me the store person indicated it was outstanding. Later he mailed me a Parker write up of 98 points. I will probably try some in near future...planing to have some foie gras before New Years!!! :-) "AyTee" > wrote in message ps.com... > Does anyone know this wine?

Sorry, I was responding thinking you were reffering to Suduiraut.

Second labels are typically intended for earlier drinking, I'd go
ahead. That is said without personal knowledge of this particular wine, just as a general observation. If you do, please report! AyTee wrote: > Does anyone know this wine?
