94 pts RP Proprietor Berenice Lurton continues to turn out one of the utterly profound wines from the Barsac Sauternes region. The 2006 is not up there with their perfect 2001, but it is a beautiful wine and stands out as one of the top wines of 2006. Medium gold, with a slightly more advanced color than I am used to seeing in a young Climens, the wine displays waxy honeyed pineapple and delicate marmalade and citrus notes with a restrained use of new oak. The wine cuts a full-bodied swath across the palate with terrific acidity, freshness, and moderate sweetness. This is a beauty, but perhaps on a much faster evolutionary track than some of their greatest vintages.

Hi! This is our new website from Kahn's Fine Wines & Spirits. Since we are still working through potential inventory bugs/kinks, we ask you to be patient with us while we get everything sorted and organized for you. You'll notice that a lot of our spirits and wine images may look like old bottling styles. We do not have those products and are working to get the correct images ASAP. There are also products that are mis-labeled and we are working to get those fixed as well. Unless your order is confirmed, it will be considered pending. We thank you for understanding :)
