If you enjoyed the Sauternes, try and grab a bottle of the Royal Tokaji Company Red Label 5 Puttunyos. Amazing wine made from harslevlu, Muscat ottonel, and furmint that was infected with botrytis. Not terribly expensive for over delivering on quality. Their highest level is called "essencia" and can run $600+ a bottle but takes roughly 10 years to ferment to around 3% alcohol bc the yeast will die off faster than it can convert the sugars to alcohol (it's sugar levels make chateau Yquem look weak and these wines can last for centuries and have in the Hungarian cellars...it's likely what in wine terms of old was referred to as the nectar of the gods).

It´s no fluke that Bodegas Vega Sicilia has bought massively there over the past twenty years.....
