Epicure (375ml, Vin de Paille)

Epicure (375ml, vin de paille, aka straw wine) is a sweet wine crafted by Buronfosse, in the Jura region in France. This sweet wine is made with Chardonnay, Poulsard and Savagnin grapes, which are dried outside for 3 months to become like raisins. It is then aged in barrel for 3 years. It used to be dried using straw, but this technique is not done anymore, but that is the history of Vin de Paille.

OMG, this sweet wine tastes INCREDIBLE! What a nectar!!!

It has a big sultana/raisin flavour profile, with touches of vanilla, cream and honey. Absolutely scrumptious and would work a treat with an apple pie!
