For Sauternes lovers, Loupiac is a stunning value—especially when one finds producers such as this. The Château du Cros Loupiac 2014 is a blend of 90% Sémillon, 5% Sauvignon blanc, and 5% Muscadelle grown in chalky clay with limestone subsoil. Mushrooms bloom from the glass followed by pure-fruited splendor: yellow peach and apricot, candied orange peel and golden raisin. Nice weight on the palate, with pit-fruit concentrated at the core, subside gracefully to a mineral and earth finish. 14.0% ABV | Sample
