Missus off to her bridge club Christmas bash, so home alone and decided to open two halves, to sort out what to drink at Christmas with the pud.
Kuentz-Bas Vendage Tardive Cuvee Caroline,Tokay Pinoy Gris, 1999. Pale golden syrup, a rather dumb, almost Riesling petrol nose, (hastily check the encepage), full and fat yet with spice and acidity, not enough body for pud, but rather nice on its own.
Ch Liot 2003 Deep gold, rather unidimensional nose of barley sugar, little botrytic hints, very sweet with little acidity, rather coarse, but will be good with pud.
