Pichot Vouvray trie de grains nobles Les Larmes de Bacchus 1996 Size::6 Bottle Case very concentrated winesProduced only 6 times and only in the very best years for botrytis. Very fresh with remarkable acidity and residual sugar of 160 g l. This stunning sweet wine is harvested grape by grape from a tiny one hectare parcel of vines that is full south facing just above the village on the valley opposite Clos du Bourg. Average yield for these 6 vintages of around 1 hl ha (average of 15 hl ha at Chateau d'Yquem). This is a remarkable labour of love of grapes
