HSE Château La Tour Blanche - Brut de Fût 2009
The Sauternes cask is the whole story here, and it divides people. Overripe grapes, raisin and a heavy, almost dosed sweetness run through the palate — one taster swears it was paired with a Beerenauslese dessert wine. Wine lovers call it a delight; a couple find it borders on too sweet. Underneath sits agricole cane and soft oak from ten years in barrel.

From community reviews · summarized with AI
Sauternes-cask agricole, rich noble-rot sweetness Wine drinkers rate it highly for its noble-rot sweetness; the catch is exactly that — some find the Sauternes influence tips past their idea of a rum.

Review by Leo Krüper
Sauternes cask sweetness, almost too sweet for me. Interesting grape note.
Review by Thunderbird
Tasting evening with Dr. Django: This HSE is a real surprise. I have the feeling that a rum has been paired with a Beerenauslese. I still find the nose relatively flat. A heavy sweetness on the palate at first, almost as if a dosage had been added. But then this heavy sweetness of overripe grapes intensifies in the finish to the aforementioned noble rot of a Beerenauslese. The whole thing is peculiar, but good

Wow, really good!
Review by Fabrice Rouanet
Perfect balance on the nose and palate. The aromatic intensity is intense, really excellent.
Review by La Brute de Futs
A clear example of HSE's aging and finishing master skills. Delicious and balanced, this rum opens up like a charm. You can literally find Sauternes' notes in the nosing and tasting. A true delight if you're, like myself, a wine aficionado. Worth every penny to be honest.
