The 1985 Saint-Julien, La Croix is a testament to the power and grace of the native Bordeaux grape, Sémillon. This wine, hand-selected by Winebuyers' experts, hails from the Fermière Borie Tached Etiquette, a unique parcel only a few hundred yards from the Sauternes region.
Aromatically, it's a symphony of bright, lemony citrus, white flowers, and a hint of tropical fruits, particularly mango and pineapple. The palate delivers on the promise with a delicate, creamy texture and a refreshing acidity that leaves a lingering, mouthwatering after-taste.
In the glass, it's a bright, shimmering yellow, with just a whisper of golden hues. The fruit is perfectly balanced, yet it's a vibrant, fresh finish that's both fruity and refreshing. Pair it with lighter seafood dishes, such as grilled shrimp or a crisp white wine spritzer, to truly taste the magic of this vintage.
This product would be a great fit for wine enthusiasts and collectors interested in discovering a high-quality St. Julian, Bottled in Bond red wine with a unique labeling style and limited production.
