The 1997 Château Haut-Mayne from Sauternes is a beautifully expressive sweet wine, crafted from 50-year-old vines and aged in oak barrels. According to the Guide Hachette des Vins, it was considered a “very successful” vintage. Here’s what you can expect:
Nose: A fragrant bouquet marrying genêt (broom flower) and acacia blossom with beeswax—a classic Sauternes aromatic trio that hints at both floral delicacy and richness.Palate: Powerful and textured, supported by a lovely confit character. The acacia notes return on the palate and persist through the long, elegant finish.Style: Traditional Sauternes—sweet, botrytised, and oak-aged—with a balance of floral lift and honeyed depth.Only 8,500 bottles were produced, and it’s recommended to serve it chilled (8–9°C). If you’ve got a bottle, it’s likely mellowed into a golden, waxy gem—perfect with foie gras, blue cheese, or almond pastries.Share
