Sauternes
Sauternes (botrytised Sémillon-Sauvignon-Muscadelle on Barsac and Sauternes graves, successive selective harvests) — candied apricot, acacia honey, saffron and Botrytis noble rot echo vanilla custard; saffron doubling the egg yolk, honey answering the cooking sugar.
Muscat de Beaumes-de-Venise
Muscat de Beaumes, fresh and floral, brings welcome lightness to the richness of custard.
Vouvray Moelleux
Moelleux Vouvray (Chenin Blanc on Loire tuffeau, late-harvest partially botrytised) — quince, honey, apricot and high natural acidity accompany custard without saturation; sharp acidity balancing 6 egg yolks and traditional-recipe sugar, quince edge bringing fruity dimension to pure Bourbon vanilla.
