Château Romer du Hayot, Le 2 de Romer du Hayot, Sauternes, - Half 2022
The Le 2 de Romer du Hayot is a beautifully judged, modern take on Sauternes - all the luscious charm you’d hope for, but with a lovely sense of freshness and lift. In the glass, ripe apricot, peach compote and candied citrus peel, with a touch of acacia honey and a fresh citrus edge. It's sweet, of course, but beautifully balanced; the acidity keeps it lively and stops it ever feeling heavy. A classic partner to tarte tatin or blue cheese, but the Le 2 is just as good slightly chilled on its own. The vineyards sit on classic clay-limestone and gravel soils, giving both richness and structure. The blend is 90% Sémillon, bringing texture and honeyed depth, with 10% Sauvignon adding a little aromatic zip and brightness.
Essensia Orange Muscat Quady (Half bottle) 2022
Essensia From 100% Orange Muscat with an aroma reminiscent of Orange Blossom and Apricot, and a lingering refreshing aftertaste, Essensia is used as a dessert accompaniment or a dessert in itself. The Orange Muscat grape variety is little known. It was once grown in France and there are some small plantings in Italy and Australia. The wine is lightly fortified to about 15% alcohol and aged for 3 months in French Oak. The wine tastes balanced, like the taste of fresh fruit. Essensia's vibrant flavour makes it an excellent accompaniment to desserts, particularly chocolate and those containing almonds, peaches, apples, or apricots. It is also used for dipping biscotti, for moistening cakes, or for adding to trifles. With sparkling water, it makes a refreshing spritzer; with sparkling wine it makes Essensia Royale.
