Domaine de L'Alliance Sauternes 2009
Blend | France
The Domaine de L'Alliance Sauternes 2008 has notes of honey, lemon, apricots, and almond on the palate. Quite viscous, it shows nice acid and length on the finish.
In Sauternes, an appellation that is more well-known for wine châteaux than for the talented people that work the soil and make the wine, Valérie and Daniel Alibrand are braving it on their own without the safety net enjoyed by their more established neighbors. KLWM has a tradition of buying direct from the vigneron, which is not easy in Bordeaux, where brokers play a dominant role in the dealings and add a percentage to the cost of each bottle.
