Château de Fesles - Bonnezeaux 2005
“Fesles is to Bonnezeaux what Yquem is to Sauternes,” according to the RVF. Château de Fesles, world-renowned for the exceptional quality of its wines, is situated on the finest terroir in Bonnezeaux. Robert Parker writes: “This estate is in a class of its own ! ” Here is its latest exceptional achievement, from a vintage for the history books. A wine of great purity, with luscious aromas of apricot and quince, and a wonderfully long finish—it can be enjoyed right now, or even in... 50 years! (50 cl bottle)

Food and Wine Pairings
A superb aperitif, with or without foie gras. It pairs surprisingly well with poultry or white meats in creamy sauces, and even better with fish (monkfish, John Dory, etc.) in wine-and-cream reduction sauces. It also makes a classic pairing with warm pear tarts. It pairs wonderfully with Roquefort and blue-veined cheeses.
