(6.2 g/l total acidity, 140 g/l residual sugar): Pale golden yellow. Knockout nose offers stone fruits, ripe pineapple, marzipan and cinnamon, complicated by clean botrytis. Luscious on the palate, but with very good lift and grip to the rich, sweet peach and apricot flavors. Wonderfully delineated wine with sneaky concentration and a very long, sweet finish. Romer du Hayot is an often underrated Sauternes that is better than most as an aperitif, and this is especially true in the fresh 2011 vintage.
