Expect notes of raisin, dried apricot, and other dried fruits, alongside apricot, peach, and apple. Earthy undertones of honey, stone, and wax are present, complemented by citrus notes like marmalade and orange. Hints of plum, straw, cheese, almond, pineapple, licorice, and acacia contribute to its intricate layers, suggesting a rich, possibly oxidative style typical of aged Savagnin dessert wines. Food pairing suggestions: Given its profile as a white dessert wine, the Sul Q would be an exceptional pairing with rich desserts such as crème brûlée or fruit tarts. It also harmonises beautifully with strong blue cheeses like Roquefort or Stilton, and can be a luxurious accompaniment to foie gras. Event suggestions: This wine is perfect for special occasions, contemplative tasting sessions, or as a sophisticated after-dinner drink. It also shines when served alongside a carefully curated cheese course. Serving Advice: For a 2002 white wine from a producer known for extended ageing, this bottle should be in excellent condition. Store it upright for a few days before opening. While not always necessary for whites, a brief decant (30 minutes to an hour) can help it open up and fully express its complex aromatic profile, especially after being sealed for a long time. Serve chilled, ideally between 10-12°C (50-54°F).
