Vendemiaire
When Nathalie bought me some of Alain Brumont's Madiran as a gift, she also bought us two 50 cl bottles of his Pacherenc du Vic Bilh Vendemiaire Octobre 2000, the grapes for which must've been harvested about 4 years ago this month. We were eating foie gras as a starter, and felt like drinking something smooth.
It's a golden yellow wine, round and sweet with plenty of grape flavor, and a few other flavors underneath. We drank it a little too cold at first. More of the scents come out when it warms up just a little. Too bad we only have one more little bottle.
