Domaine de l'Alliance Sauternes Esquisse 2019 (Case only) brand_Agathe Bursin Floods deposited silt loam soilsEsquisse is like a lightweight Sauternes: balanced, complex, and certainly sweet, but without the viscosity and distinctive smoky, earthy aromatics of grapes strongly impacted by botrytis. This refreshing dessert wine is therefore much more versatile at tableit works wonders as an aperitif or with cheesesand can still be cellared for several years. This is a real treat from one of Sauternes' last true artisans.
