Late Harvest Dessert Wine
Grape variety: Chenin Blanc
The delicious and delectable curiosity of our range: the grapes for our ‘Tears of Gold’ were picked in October and November, when their naturally concentrated sugars were perfectly balanced by natural freshness, and then fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks.
The grapes were blessed with a phenomenon we experience only once every ten years: noble rot.
Neither syrupy nor cloyingly sweet, Lagremas d’Aur is delicious with cheese, fruit pies, foie gras … or just on its own.
Very clean honeyed flavours (17 pts)

Quite delicious. As good as the best Bonnezeaux or Coteaux du Layon… Try detecting the difference in a blind tasting.
