Darker in color than most 2007 Sauternes showing intense aromas of dried apricot with toffee notes and an almost smoky character. This is full-bodied and very sweet with a full-blown dried fruit and raisin flavor. Long and superbly rich. Best after 2014

Tasted at the de Myrat vertical at the property. The 2007 Château de Myrat is the vintage were this historic property finally "got back into the ring" after it recommenced production in 1990. It has an attractive dried honey, apricot blossom and quince scented bouquet that still feels vigorous and with more to give for those who prefer their Sauternes with age. The palate is medium-bodied with a viscous opening, a fine line of acidity, harmonious and refined with a finish that just seems to "flow" with lovely citrus fruit, honey, mandarin and spice notes. This comes recommended—an excellent wine from Xavier de Pontac. Tasted April 2016. - Neal Martin

This sweet, Bordeaux wine is another example of how strong 2007 is for Sauternes. With a nose packed with honey covered apricots, ripe pineapple, vanilla bean and white nectarine, the wine is rich, sweet and packed with layers of honey coated, intensely ripe, tropical fruits and nuts.92 Read more at:https://www.thewinecellarinsider.com/wine-tasting-note/?vintage=2007&wine=Chateau%20de%20Myrat

The 2007 Château de Myrat has quite a strong, petrolly bouquet that slightly obscures the terroir expression. The palate is well balanced with tangy marmalade and quince on the entry. Good acidity here, and it gains more clarity towards the finish. As the aromatics calm down, this turns into a fine Sauternes. Tasted at the 2007 horizontal in Sauternes. -- Neal Martin
