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.
Vergelegen Semillon Straw Wine 375ml (80cl) 2015
Vergelegen Semillon Straw Wine is ripe, with tropical fruit notes in abundance on the nose but the wine does not become dull and uninteresting due to marvelous acidity and freshness on the palate. Serve well chilled at 8-10 degrees Centigrade.
