Make no mistake, we are in world class territory. Robert Parker compared the sweet wines of Tirecul as the most notable sweet wines from anywhere in the world. Les Pins is the estates entry level sweet wine.
 
Could be labelled as Sélection de Grains Nobles but they aren’t always aged for the minimum 18 months before release. With 140g/l residual sugar the finish is much drier due to the fabulous acidity (a recurring theme in these wines).
 
More of a tropical, laid back feel to this - pineapple fruit with bright acidity to keep you coming back for more.

A posset, a syllabub.... one of those desserts that you're not entirely sure what it is...
