Chateau Graves Croix du Mont 2005
Ste Croix du Mont, Bordeaux, France
9.50€
From directly across the river Garonne to Sauternes & Barsac but at a mere fraction of the price, here is a glorious and heady mixture of pineapple, apricots and honey with a hint of acacia blossom and vanilla. This is a full, generous sweet wine, almost buttery in texture with great acidity.
Drink with: Foie-gras and rich Liver Patés; Creamy & Fruit desserts such as Crème Brulée and Bread & Butter Pudding; Roquefort and other salty Blue Cheese
