A stunning example of this vintage, Gilette’s 1975, released in 1997, exhibits a deep gold color, followed by a spicy vanillin-scented nose with loads of fresh, lively, honeyed citrus, buttery pineapple/pear-like fruit. The wine is probably sweeter than it tastes, but because of the good acidity, it comes across as an off-dry, dazzingly rich, full-bodied, exceptionally fresh Sauternes with razor-sharp definition, and a finish that lasts for more than 30 seconds. It is stunningly youthful, as well as complex and marvelous. Anticipated maturity: Now-2010. Last tasted 3/97
